Created in the late 1920s by a skilled carver, showing great attention to detail, and potentially the work of a veteran from one of noteworthy studios of the time. We have not seen anything quite like this incredible trade figure before. It is likely that this voluptuous, 51" tall, partially nude wooden sculpture was commissioned by a Harlem brothel owner. The female figure has weathering and paint loss throughout. The left foot and thumb are missing. She is mounted to a custom, sheet metal plinth.
Condition: (Good - Very Good).
Item Dimensions: 16"L x 16"W x 54"T.
