About the Item

A finely hand-carved bust in walnut wood, likely created in the mid-20th century. The sculpture portrays a male figure with striking realism, showcasing detailed facial features, textured hair, and naturalistic musculature. The wood’s deep tones and grain enhance the expressive quality of the carving, while the smooth polish brings out its natural warmth. A powerful and skillfully executed piece of figurative art.
