I call this one "I need to wet my whistle"
You may look at this and wonder what on earth is sticking out of his mouth.
Rest assured it's not a joint. :)
This is drawn from a photo I took of a carving on a wall that sat in the courtyard at the Vatican Museum in Italy.
The man's lips have deteriorated and part of his beard has fallen off. In his mouth is a faucet with water trickling from it into a small bird bath below.
I don't think he looks happy.
