DescriptionOne of 44 lithographs that present the original story of Pinocchio. In the center is Pinocchio with black paint over his feet, symbolizing his feet burning off. To the left of center is a large depiction of Pinocchio's face. And just to the right of Pinocchio is a color version on him with a blue shirt, red trousers and suspenders, and skin, but he is devoid of any features. Black text printed over top.
