Hi all.
This is my first time in this forum. I hope I've come to the right place.
My friend found a wood carving on the side of the road (council cleanup)
It measures 1300mm x 300mm. I think its Tas oak, at least the frame is.
I'm no wood carver but I can see the extraordinary amount of skill, time and effort that must have gone into this piece. The amount of detail is amazing. There is a bit of damage where it was thrown out, but not much. I can't believe anyone would have dumped this magnificant Artwork.
The carvers initials are M. HEALE 1920.
Anyone out there heard this name before? Or know anything about it? Just seems a shame just to put it on a wall in the house. It seems good enough to be in a museum or at least somewhere on public display.
