- Summary
- This volume presents the finest collection of American folk art sculpture in private hands. At the heart of this collection of mostly nineteenth-century pieces are weathervanes of every size and description - roosters, trumpeting angels, running, jumping and prancing horses, and more. There are also ships' figureheads, decoys and such unique works as a life-size painted stalking tiger. Descriptive captions and provenance are found in a sixteen-page illustrated catalog.
