Parasol with handle

View through Europeana Collections
The bamboo stick of this parasol has a long, tear-shaped ivory knob carved in relief with lilies-of-the-valley. The influence of naturalism in art (the preference for realistic depictions), which emerged in the second half of the 19th century in France, is evident in these precisely sculpted, deeply incised flowers. The theme continues at the tip of the parasol.
