An unusual and charming vintage golfer sculpture bearing an original label identifying the designer as celebrated Mexican artist Manuel Felguérez.

The whimsical figure depicts a golfer mid-swing, with elongated metal limbs, a turquoise cap, a coral-orange shirt, and vibrant turquoise-green trousers. Its simplified facial features, exaggerated proportions, and expressive posture give the piece a distinctive modernist character.

Mounted on a rectangular base, this sculpture brings personality, color, and artistic interest to a bookshelf, home office, library, or curated collection of Mexican modernist art.
