This wood carving of an “Afroantillana” (Black Latina) is in very good condition, no damage to the wood. The woman’s post earrings, tight-knit hair, and beautifully detailed facial features were carved by a Puerto Rican artisan sometime in the 1980’s or early 1990’s. The artist did not sign it. Bust is 4 3/4 in high (without the base) and 3 1/8 in wide (without the base). Entire carving, including base, is 6 1/4 in high.
