Fabulous Old Carved, Painted Folk Art Horse with Bristle Mane and Tail carved wooden Hitler figure I think I love portraits

I think I love portraits of houses as much as portraits of people

mid/2nd half 18th century

Winder in very good condition

perhaps because finding the first reminded me what satisfying things these are

and seems as though he was meant to function as a door stop

Fabulous Old Carved, Painted Folk Art Horse with Bristle Mane and Tail carved wooden Hitler figure I think I love portraitsGreat horse. I found this one on a day at Brimfield when I had come across a sequence of nice old carved animals that were priced beyond what I could justify happily my patience was rewarded. Photos give a good sense, including of its very soulful feeling carved out eyes. The mane and tail I believe are made of straw bristles, with the way the mane falls to one side of the neck I think especially beautiful looks like it was adhered via small holes cut
