Charming pair of mid-century Mexican (or Guatemalan) folk art figurines depicting a farmer and his wife carrying pottery and harvest bundles. Each figure is hand-modeled from papier-mâché and cloth over wood bases, dressed in traditional woven garments and adorned with handmade accessories.
Expressive, lifelike faces and rich detailing make this an exceptional example of regional artisan craft. Signed indistinctly on one base.
