Antique hand-carved wooden wall decoration in Viechtau folk art style from Austria, early 20th century
A stunning hand-carved wooden wall decoration in the folk art style, circa 1900–1910s, found at an estate auction in Wels, Austria. This detailed carving captures the rustic spirit of 19th and early 20th-century Alpine craftsmanship and features an intricately sculpted wooden head.
