This hand-carved wall sculpture in the stylized form of a sun face exemplifies folk art traditions rooted in the late 19th century. Crafted from walnut, measuring 44 cm wide, 50 cm high, and 11 cm deep, it stands out for its warm, medium walnut-brown hue with distinctive wood grain patterns. The matte finish enhances the natural texture and authenticity of the material. The sculpted sun face—closed eyes, rounded cheeks, and a joyful smile—is encircled by a radiating sunburst, featuring alternating longer and shorter beveled rays. On the reverse, a discreetly integrated carved loop allows for wall hanging. The surface feels smooth, yet subtle tool marks reveal the artisanal nature of the piece. The sculpture is preserved in excellent condition, with only minimal age-related patina and no visible repairs or damage. The piece evokes an era when the sun symbolized both protection and the daily rhythm of village life. Its serene, smiling features—softly shaped by careful handwork—recall the atmosphere of rustic interiors and the straightforward sincerity of folk craftsmanship. The sculpture seems to offer a gentle reminder that sunlight should bring both warmth and joy; the radiating beams set a harmonious, cyclical rhythm, much like morning and dusk passing across an old clock face. The mood conveyed is one of tradition and a timeless optimism, capturing universal human
