 Eagle Carving

Presented here, one of the most magnificent Folk Art Carvings we have had the pleasure to present. Standing a majestic 17" tall and mounted on a driftwood colored base made of branches, this eagle is nothing short of compelling in its grandeur.  The carving is the work of a master and the detail is incredible.

 

No matter how you look at this piece, you can't help but be impressed by the artistic balance and attention to detail in the feather carvings and especially in the head.  The artist obviously understood the "essence" and the majesty of the bird and under his capable hands, brought the carving to life, for that is the very essence of Folk Art . . . the ability to capture the essence of an object which is its life, to freeze it in time and then release it when someone looks at it 100 or more years later.

 

The piece is in wonderful condition. There is a small repair to the tail feathers at the bottom that is hidden by the base when viewed from the front, but needs to be mentioned for the sake of accuracy. The base is signed W. Buttner.
