"Fairground Art - Alsace Or Flemish - Couple In Polychrome Carved Wood - Late 19th Early 20th."
Pair of 19th century characters, Alsace, Flemish? They are made of carved and polychrome wood from a fairground game. The man holds a goblet and a carafe in his hands and the woman holds a canvas pocket or bag in her hands. The two characters are dressed in their regional outfits with their headdresses, etc. They are pierced on the side where an axis was to pass which allowed a tilting back and forth which can allow us to put forward the hypothesis of a game of skill such as a massacre game.Height Man 44 cm Height woman 42 cm
