Sunday at the Park HN5417, Royal Doulton Figurine

Sunday at the Park (HN5417) was designed by Neil Faulkner and issued in 2010 in a limited edition of just 1,200 pieces — commissioned exclusively for the Canadian market by The Shopping Channel, making it one of the most geographically specific pieces in the entire HN range. At 7 inches tall and 9.5 inches long it is a figure group, not a single standing portrait, and the horizontal scale gives it considerably more visual presence than its height alone suggests.

The subject is a Victorian couple at leisure in the park — a scene of afternoon ease and period elegance that captures the particular quality of Sunday in the best sense: unhurried, well-dressed, the world at a comfortable distance. Faulkner brought the same warmth and attention to period detail that defines the best of Doulton's narrative figure groups, and the composition rewards looking at from multiple angles in the way that single-figure pieces often cannot.

The Canadian-exclusive provenance is the defining characteristic here, and it is one that matters enormously in the market. With only 1,200 produced and distribution limited entirely to Canada, examples that surface outside the country are genuinely rare. For Canadian collectors this is a piece of particular national resonance — a Royal Doulton work made specifically for them, in a quantity that would have sold out quickly on its original release. This example retains its original box and certificate of authenticity, the complete presentation that serious collectors and gift buyers require.
