SOLD Carved Articulated Folk Art Figure with Goofy Face renaissance style painting The cup shows some ageI really love this guy, clearly an old one, carved of pine which has developed a wonderfully warm dry patina over the years, and with this surprisingly goofy face, made so pretty much entirely by his very lopsided smile. As such, he really feels quite singular, and reflective of a particular maker who was probably a bit goofy themself! With a terrifically rounded form to the head and torso that feels just right and gives him an excellent profile. Arms
