This cast iron "Bull with Horns" still bank, created by John Wright around 1970, is a charming example of folk art. It depicts a black bull with a white horn, standing in a classic, naturalistic pose, and its intricate details are both whimsical and endearing. The bank's slot is cleverly concealed in the bull's side, making it a playful and functional piece. This charming piece showcases Wright's talent for capturing the essence of a familiar animal in a simple and engaging way.
