<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 416155, member: 5833"]I see a calf supporting the box. The boars & bull on the box show the carver was capable of making a pig look like a pig. The face/ears on the supporting figure look juvenile bovine to me. Think the tail has been looped up as a practical matter of not having the end hang down between the legs, where it would be vulnerable to being snapped off.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
