Sculpture in finely carved and masterfully lacquered Swiss pine wood depicting a "Pitocco"; the typical character portraying a beggar that was represented in eighteenth-century Venice, with a hunched posture, dressed in tattered clothes and with a pointed hat, holding a bundle in his hands; barefoot, he stands on a base imitating rocky ground, which in turn rests on a rectangular molded pedestal.
Venice, 18th century.
