A characterful vintage folk art sculpture depicting a jockey leaning forward atop a galloping racehorse. Hand-cut and painted wood elements are layered over a long black plinth, creating a wonderfully dimensional silhouette. Likely dating to the mid-20th century based on its construction, naïve painted details, and naturally distressed finish, it may have originated as a carnival racing game figure, betting-game piece, or equestrian display decoration. Substantial paint loss, surface wear, scratches, and age-related distress throughout contribute to its authentic timeworn character.

Size 16"w x 4"d x 9.5"h
