From "Bizzarie di varie Figure" 1624

This etching from 1624 by Giovanni Battista Bracelli is a comical and whimsical representation of two figures constructed entirely from objects. The left figure is composed of a bucket for a head, a wooden plank for a body, a shovel for a foot, and a pair of tongs for an arm. The figure on the right holds a bowl, is adorned with a patterned scarf, and stands on a pair of scissors. The etching, likely drawn from a series of works, showcases Bracelli's creative use of linework and his interest in the absurd.
