ARTIST: Unknown; TITLE OF WORK: WPA Masterpiece; AGE: c. 1939; DIMENSIONS: 24-1/2"h; MEDIUM/MATERIALS: Carved reddish hardwood - possibly teak; MARKS: None. This sculpture once sat on a base that may have been marked; CONDITION: Excellent - minor age split in wood (visible in photo), which adds character and should not be considered damage; COMMENTS: A subtle beauty! Typical of the sculpture displayed at the New York World's Fair 1939, executed by such luminaries as William Zorach, Carl Schmitz, and Raoul Hague.
