My latest piece of 'folk-art'.

65 centimetres wide and placed
in the little niche on the other
side of the street from my house
(my smallest piece of garden),
this limestone sculpture of a
wild boar and his family
(sold by my friend, executor and
brocanteur David Poirier,
at a very reasonable price),
has no provenance, but is likely to have
been chiselled somewhere in Quercy,
Rouergue or the Albigeois, SW France.

An interpretation of the top right of the plaque would be most welcome.
The leaf seems to be beech...
