The elegant cockatiel lives up to its name! This amusing bird, stuffed with an open beak and laughing eyes, seems to be in the middle of a drawing room conversation. With its complicated headdress, its overly made-up cheeks and its pale complexion, one would almost think one was seeing a ridiculous precious creature straight out of the human comedy. It is nonetheless a very beautiful and amusing piece for a cabinet of curiosities, to place in one's drawing room, between two guests, during conversations that are a little too stiff.
