Depicts, in bas-relief, the face of a laughing man with prominent sideburns, which extend to form a pedestal upon which a woman leans, legs apart and dressed as an acrobat. From his outstretched arms, two birds drink from a chalice (a symbol of Redemption?) resting on the woman’s head. Decorative elements blackened. Early 20th century H. 65 cm – W. 42 cm Damage and restoration. A hanging hook on the reverse.
