Another Carving

[chuck] in Art, Vietnam Museum of Ethnology

Another carving from the outdoor display at the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology (see MuseĆ© d'Ethnographie du Vietnam).  Although there was no information posted about this statue, when I look at it I see a very evocative rendering of a mother and child, the child being carried in a sling or pack on his/her mother's back. [NOTE: The carving is about 5 to 6 feet tall].
