Description:

Full-length portrait of Polichinelle, the French variant of Pulcinella, the character of the commedia dell'arte from which Punch is derived. He is seen here wearing a large cocked hat and leaning on a stick, with humps protruding from his back and his belly, and showing himself off to his best advantage.
