About the Item

Hand-carved wood figure on painted wooden base, realized in the mid-20th Century. A striking and emotive handcrafted wooden sculpture depicting a seated figure in a pose of deep contemplation, with arms raised and hands covering the face in a gesture of introspection. The figure is rendered in a primitive, stylized manner, with simplified anatomical forms that emphasize mood over detail. The dark-toned wood gives the piece an earthy, raw presence, while the surface shows subtle tool marks attesting to its hand-carved nature. The sculpture is mounted on a stepped wooden base painted in a vivid green, providing a contrasting foundation that enhances the figure’s solemn aura. It is presented with a clear protective display cover, allowing for preservation while maintaining visibility from all angles. Comes with a transparent protective cover. Good overall condition, surface shows minor wear consistent with age
