19th Century, Black Forest Carved Oak Newel Post Finial Form of a Dog w/ Shield

19th Century, Black Forest Carved Oak Newel Post Finial Form of a Dog w/ Shield

Located in Atlanta, GA

A highly expressive and deeply carved Black Forest figural newel post finial, dating to the late 19th century, rendered in dense, dark-stained oak.

Its claws are sharply delineated and muscular tension is suggested through the modeling of the forelimbs and chest. The sculpture rests on a squared plinth base, likely modified for later display, though originally designed as a finial for a stair newel post...
