Terracotta Tobacco Jar - Sailor From "cherbourg" - Attributed To l'Isle-adam And Bearing The Number 939
Anthropomorphic polychrome terracotta tobacco jar, numbered 939 in relief, depicting a grumpy old sailor with a pipe, but handsome and quite endearing nonetheless.
Original inscription "Cherbourg" - Production attributed to L'Isle-Adam.
Note: the beret forming the lid and several other parts have been reattached in the past (see photos), but these are barely noticeable when viewing our old friend from the front.
A beautiful piece of folk art in its original condition with its period patina.
