玩具音乐机 "少女与木偶", 出自 Lambert, 约1895年

With Jumeau bisque character head impressed "211" and stamped in red "Déposé Tête Jumeau 4", modelled as a crying child with narrowed brown glass eyes, open/closed mouth with moulded teeth and tongue, pierced ears and blonde mohair wig, holding a handkerchief and the string to a papier-mâché polichinelle marionette in original paper-trimmed satin costume, on figured-velvet covered base with going-barrel movement playing one air ("La Grosse Cais…") and causing the bébé to turn and incline her head, raise the marionette’s string and then lift the handkerchief to her face as though dabbing away tears, appropriately redressed in candy-striped pink silk brocade costume trimmed with antique ribbons and lace, height 19 in. (48.5 cm), (wig has not been removed, replacement bisque hands, marionette’s toes chipped), with brass LB key, stop/start and tune-sheet marked "Modèle Déposé".–One of a series of rare bisque character heads produced by Emile Jumeau. Moulds 211 (the crying child) and 203 (the laughing child) were destined for use on Lambert automata, although the same expressions are also occasionally found on Jumeau dolls in their own right. An unusual automaton in working order.
