Fisherman, Fisherwoman
Tuesday, 26 May, 2009

My husband found this pair in an antique shop in Westfield, NY.  I love them so much.  They stand about 5 inches high and are carved of wood.  They're neither signed nor valuable (except to us).  My photo doesn't capture the intricacies of their faces nor that the tip of each nose is broken off.  The woman holds a fish; the man carries a sack over his shoulder.  I could write a whole book about this pair. Want to name them?

  1. Oh, if you double-click on the photo, you CAN see their faces and their broken noses better!
