The graceful mermaid kneels on a turtle and holds up a bowl filled primarily with fish. Bronze from Florence, height 11.5 cm. The object is one of 15 from my collection that is depicted in the aforementioned book by A. Lauterwasser. His shortened quote: good example of the “polarity of convex closure (shell) and concave openness (shell)”.
