Don't take it the wrong way, in this country the word Putto refers to very bad people, it's even a bad word, when I read it I looked at the boy and thought, he opens the dolphin's mouth with force, he's a very Putto, even the expression on his face reveals some evil , well , the artist possibly wanted to show a restless and innocent child , and I see something different .
Hey, take a good look at the expression on his face, or ignore me.
I just tell you what I see
Hey @lupega, the word originally goes back to the Latin word putillus and this art form of the renaissance is probably not associated with this meaning. I understand your approach and can’t say exactly whether the artist made the work with this intention, but I don’t think so. Have a nice day.
