Carved ivory figurine of a boy with a bird 1800s.

Carved ivory figurine of a boy with a bird, standing on a collapsible pedestal. A rural bird catcher in a straw hat is ironically represented by an ancient philosopher in the pose of a pastoral thinker. The bird in hand is a kind of theme for thinking about freedom. But who else in the human world can be freer than a carefree bird catcher?

1800s, supposedly made in Dieppe. Height 11.5 cm.
