Ironwood Cubist Musician Sculpture After Picasso Style Mid Century 9
Vintage hand-carved ironwood sculpture depicting an abstract Cubist musician figure, executed in the style of Pablo Picasso. The elongated form, stylized facial features, and integrated stringed instrument reflect strong influence from Picasso’s Cubist guitar and musician subjects. Carved from dense ironwood with a deep, rich patina. The surfaces are smoothly finished with bold, architectural lines that unify figure and instrument into a single vertical form. The carving reads well from all sides and has excellent presence for display. Unsigned, as is typical for many mid-century artisan and export carvings. Likely produced circa 1950s-1970s, during the height of Picasso-inspired modernist interpretations. This sculpture is offered as “after Picasso” / Picasso-inspired, referencing stylistic influence only. It is not attributed to Pablo Picasso. Good vintage condition with natural age wear and patina. Minor surface marks and base wear consistent with hand carving. No cracks or repairs noted.

Up for sale is a very nice hand carved eagle that my grandparents picked up in Mexico in the 1950’s. It has a lot of detail and unique characteristics in the wood. I had it appraised along with their other nicer items before our estate sale. See the pictures for the best possible description of the carving.

Biggest Ironwood Eagle I have ever seen! First was my friends grandpa who bought this in Mexico while on vacation decades ago. Condition is amazing and looks even better in person. Ironwood carving is a unique art that originated by the Seri indigenous tribe. Seri tribe members have lived in extreme habitats in the great Sonora Desert of Arizona and Northern Mexico. There are records of Seri existence going back as far as 1536 although no one knows exactly when they originated. It was not until 1961 that Seri started carving ironwood sculptures as an art. Over time, Seri tribe members have perfected their skills and handcraft sculptures of sea life, birds, animals, reptiles, and humans. Seri members who become masters in the art of carving spend hours and even days sanding, polishing, and detailing sculptures to perfection. Ironwood is a common name for a large number of woods that have a reputation for hardness. This species of ironwood is Olneya tesota and it is the only species of its kind found in the Pacific southwest. It grows to 2,500 feet above sea level in the deserts of southwestern Arizona, southeastern California, Baja California, and Sonora. Olneya tesota is one of the longest living trees in the Sonoran Desert, and can live as long as 1,500 years, although it is very rare. Green Ironwood trees are not harvested for carving. This species of trees is protected by the government and can only be used for artisan purposes. Only naturally fallen trees or trees that have been struck by lightning are used for these carvings. Dry ironwood must be exposed to extreme climate conditions of the Sonoran Desert for a minimum of 5 years to be suitable for carving. Artisans spend numerous hours finding a tree that is appropriate for a sculpture.
