Netsuke, wood and horn. Japan, 1st half 19th cent.
The professional sneezer who sits on the street tickling himself and then nearly explodes to amuse the bystanders. This motif is quite common, the facial expression on this figure is particularly well-made, realistic and grotesque! Will his sneeze fail, or is he about to burst? Very vivid anatomical details, the small rod and some of the upper teeth are made of horn. Unusually large himotoshi, the signature MI-WA with the typical seal. Very good condition.
HEIGHT 3,85 CM
