Henning Wooden Figure: Person on Horse

A valuable wood carving by the Norwegian sculptor Henning Engelsen. This is a rare piece.

A gentleman on horseback. A valuable wood carving by the Norwegian sculptor Henning Engelsen. He is a representative artist of Norway. I believe the work is from the 60s. It is a very good piece. There are some scratches due to aging, but there are no noticeable scratches or damage. It comes with the original tag. The tag also has an explanation in Japanese. He is also famous as an artist who creates many gnomes and other fairies.
He also has collectors all over the world, and rare items are traded at very high prices.

Henning Engelsen (1918-2005)
Norwegian sculptor and illustrator.
He started sculpting around 1947 and established the wood carving company "Henning". He created works using many motifs from animals, mythology, and folklore. From the 1950s to the 1960s, his works spread around the world as souvenirs from Norway.
The company was taken over by Henning's family, and production by hand continues in the Norwegian workshop even now.
