Putto
Dickeyville Grotto, southwestern Wisconsin
According to my dictionary a putto is a representation of a naked child, especially a cherub or a cupid in Renaissance art. It's pronounced POO-toe, and the plural is putti, pronounced POO-tee. This sweet little fellow dwells in the beautiful Dickeyville Grotto, in the town of Dickeyville, Wisconsin.
