About the Item

In the style of Robert Hughes, Joseph Goethe and Antoniucci Volti, Frank Dobson and hints of Fernando Botero, this exquisite museum quality sculpture is one of the most enduring pieces we have had the pleasure to offer. Unsigned and of undocumented provenance, yet, clearly, a master work. Carved from solid wood, this piece bears carver's marks, a natural age-developed patina, and a wonderfully expressive stance, gesture, and body position. This piece draws on the rich traditions of classical and modernist influences, inviting both contemplation and awe. This piece is both timeless and uniquely individual, with a deep, almost living character to the wood. It feels as though the artist has captured a moment frozen in time. There is a palpable tension in the sculpture’s presence, a sense of life within the wood that cannot be denied. The artist has not simply carved a figure; they have created a soul. Dimensions 5.75ʺW × 5.5ʺD × 12.25ʺH
