Bronze figures of mimic buffoons from Pompeii, one naked with a huge penis obscenely gesturing ("making the fig") and the other wearing a shawl extending his index fingers like cuckold horns. Handcoloured lithograph from Cesar Famin's "Musee royal de Naples (The Royal Museum at Naples)," Abel Ledoux, Paris, 1836. This rare volume is a catalog of the collection of erotic paintings, bronzes and statues excavated in Pompeii and Herculaneum and stored in a Secret Cabinet at Naples.
