Carved Little Girl with Wonderfully Open Face fine engraving and became known for finely

and became known for finely rendered

Fair condition--there is a crease near her mouth

A couple of more wonderfully colorful naive antique drawings today

with some older mustard underneath showing though

but this carver clearly had some skills

Carved Little Girl with Wonderfully Open Face fine engraving and became known for finelyI've kept this little girl near me for quite a while, but this seems just the right moment to share her. The openness of her brown face breaks my heart, looking quite ready for her first day of school, perhaps en route to leading the free world! With chunky black shoes, and one hand opened out to the side as if to hold the hand of a comrade. Full of life and hope. 4 1 2" t x 1 3 4" w x 1 1 16" d and in very good condition, c. 1940s or so I think.
