Figure2903/22

Wooden figure of a man in a stooped standing position. The man’s head and nose are quite large compared to the rest of his body. He wears a flat-brimmed hat with a small circle on the top of it. He has long side burns. His mouth and eyes are made of small slits. The man’s arms are positioned close together on the front of his body. His hands are very small. His back is high and rounded around his neck as if his shoulders are stooped or he is a hunchback. The legs of the man are bent at the knee, so that his thighs are parallel to the ground; this gives him the posture of being seated while standing. His feet are rectangular and are attached to a square wooden base. On the bottom of the figure there is a piece of tape with a number written in pen on it.
