Solentiname Large Carved Wood Sculpture - Scarlet Macaw - Solentiname Archipielago, Nicaragua
$468.00
Code: CRFA048
Size: 40" (102 cms) tall
This large carved and painted balsa wood sculpture of a majestic scarlet macaw (and the river landscape painted on its base) was created by a local folk artisan of the Solentiname Archipelago on the southern edge of Lake Nicaragua close to the border with Costa Rica. The Namu collection has always featured Solentiname folk arts - consisting of carved/painted wood figures of local fauna and highly detailed oil paintings on canvas - as the residents of the southeastern edge of Lake Nicaragua and the Northern Plains and Rio Frio National Park of Costa Rica are all related.
It would seem that the border between Nicaragua and Costa Rica in this region is simply an abstraction existing only on the map! This larger sculptural piece would look fantastic gracing a veranda, or doorway
