About the Item

This hand-carved sculpture by Arizona artist Hector Ruiz can be interpreted two different ways. One view reflects a successful woman, a leader, boss, CEO, etc. on top of a man, or ahead of him professionally. The second view embraces the idea of a men liking their position under a woman…whether professionally, personally or sexually. Some men like a woman who takes charge: a woman on top.
