Paul Storr

Cleveland Museum of Art

The object is a gold-colored fork with four prongs. The handle of the fork is ornately decorated with raised images. At the end of the handle, a scene depicts a man on foot holding a spear and accompanied by two dogs, chasing a boar. The man wears a hat and has one leg bent. The boar is running, and one dog is biting its side, while the other dog is positioned behind the boar. The handle also features a floral design near the prongs. The background of the image is gray.
