We're proud to present this large vintage hand carved polychromed wooden rooster folk art statue with beautifully aged original patina, dating to the mid-20th century, Latin America, Central America, Guatemala. circa 1960
A fun, attractive and whimsical solid wood carving, featuring old fashioned primitive craftsmanship, depicted in stylized farmhouse rooster form. The whimsy figure mounted standing, resting atop a single rustic plank base, rising on two straight legs, most unusual coloring and proportions, ending in a flouncy red wooden tail.
Original layers of red, yellow, white and black pigment decorate this charming zoomorphic creature adorned contrasting dots.
In Guatemala animals and birds have long been regarded as sacred in some religious practices and throughout ancient mythology, as well as a main source of symbolism.
Folk art is a fascinating way to uniquely decorate your home, add inspiration, conversational interest (especially during entertaining) and rich cultural depth, combined with distinct decorative elements of texture, unusual form, space, bold vibrant color, and much more.
Provenance:
Acquisition: A reputable high-end auction house with locations along the east coast and Dallas, Texas; from a well curated, private Greenwich, Connecticut estate. Additionally procured a similarly styled menagerie of animals, Latin American origin, from the same CT estate.
