[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 2532122, member: 8267"]Good observation. Now that Aquitaine has reoriented him, I can see that the "framing elements" are probably supposed to be his arms. I find it curious that the back of the figure has not been finished at all. Similar objects that I have handled have been finished in the round. Almost as if someone was working from photographs, where the backs are rarely shown.[/QUOTE]
