Circa: 1950s
Size: 5"
Country of Origin: Japan
Manufacturer: Cherchez La Femme
This Josef Original or copy, Impressed Cherchez LaFemme on the base, is ink stamped 7616 on the bottom. It’s 5" tall and closely resembles "Denise" on page 16 of the Josef Originals, A Second Look, by Jim and Kaye Whitaker. The literal translation of Cherchez La Femme, impressed on the base, is "look for the woman." It expresses the idea that behind a problem in question, there is a woman. That isn’t to say that the woman herself was necessarily the direct cause of the problem, as in Shakespeare’s Macbeth for instance, but that a man has behaved stupidly or out of character in order to inmpress a woman or gain her favor. This charming piece is in great shape, with no chips, cracks or repairs. It has a VERY high gloss, which has made it very hard to photograph. I must apologize for the "white glare spots" in the pictures. |
