A most interesting early 1900s carved folk art piece in the form of a rowing shell complete with rowers and coxswain. The name Jaap Dutry is painted on the side of the shell, possibly meant to depict the Dutch racing shell and crew of that name participating in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. From a Newfoundland collection. Perhaps just a bit too well-crafted to be considered folk art -- a wonderful piece regardless. 14.5" total length. 

Dimensions: 14.5"
