This vintage Haitian Wood Log Sculpture of a seated mother breast feeding her sprawling infant, is in excellent condition. This one-of-a-kind piece of Haitian folk art was hand-carved using traditional techniques from a single section of a wood log, and dates to the 1960s. It measures 26″ tall, 9″ wide, 11 at the base, and is signed: E. Lesperance on the top of the base. It has a light, natural wood oil finish and color. There are a few splits from aging and two patches to the shoulders (by the artist) that add to the charm and authenticity of the artwork. The fine detailing, sculptural figure modeling, and craftsmanship of this sweet piece is really wonderful. A significant addition to your home décor and collection.
