Volkskunst Antik Granit Baumstumpf Skulptur Grabstein Hudson Valley

439,40 €

16 lb. granite tombstone hand chiseled to emulate a cut off tree trunk. Tree stumps were often carved in limestone and granite to serve as funerary monuments, especially for people who died young. Tree stump tombstones were common in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States. This piece was found decades ago in Upstate New York in the Hudson River Valley. About 8" high with a varying diameter of 7-1/2-8". The bottom is flat, and there is a hole in the top that is about 2" deep. I think that this piece must be a part of a larger funerary monument. This is the only piece I have. I don't know what the hole was used for. A great example of antique American folk art.
