Description
Anthropomorphic door knocker Made of wrought iron. The figure takes the form of a standing acrobat, perched on the shoulders of an attendant wearing a pointed headdress, of whom only the torso is visible. Engravings can be made out on the acrobat’s body, and the face of the second figure is well detailed. They are positioned beneath a gable adorned with a flower at the top. Behind these figures, a sturdy square, truncated-conical door knocker with bevelled sides and a movable fixing pin is visible. 16th–17th century H. 22.5 cm SSE Missing arms and signs of wear
