Carved Toy Horse 1935 - 1942

Hester Duany's "Carved Toy Horse" (1935-1942) is a detailed pencil drawing of a wooden toy horse. The horse is depicted in profile, with its head turned slightly to the right. The artist captures the simple charm and craftsmanship of the carved toy. The smooth curves of the horse's body and the simplified forms of its legs give the piece a sense of folk art. Duany's attention to detail, particularly in the horse's mane and tail, adds a touch of realism to this charming object.
