Pair of polychrome Breton sculptures depicting a fisherman and his

Descriptio Carved and polychromed fruitwood. Dimensions: 55 × 20 × 15 cm each. A charming pair of Breton folk figures, carved in wood and richly polychromed, depicting a fisherman and his wife dressed in the region’s traditional attire.
