<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 208553, member: 44&quot;]Elf, he probably is, but to me an elf or pixie seem to have impish faces perpetually planning tricks and mischief. This fellow doesn&#039;t have such a facial expression. With the cone hat with a ball at the peak, Peter Pan collar, possibly ruffles around the cuffs of the pant legs, and wide bow tie looks more like a sleepy boy in clown PJs. The clothing also made me think about one of the clown characters from the Italian Commedia dell&#039;arte (Harlequin, Pierrot, Pulcinella, etc.) or an Italian opera character Pagliacci. I think at least one of them is sometimes portrayed wearing a cone hat, wide collar and a one piece outfit.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
