Lot description
Decorative African stitched brown and white cowhide animal picture rug, Bald Eagle Landing, depicting an eagle in dynamic pose with wings outstretched, maker's mark on back, approx 86"l, 81"w Provenance: Vukari Art, artisan-crafted from 100% Nguni Cowhide Note per consignor: With talons extended and eyes locked on the horizon, the Bald Eagle does not wait for opportunity - he seizes it. He is the living emblem of American boldness: freedom in motion, precision in purpose. In his swoop we see the courage to descend into the unknown, and the strength to rise with it clutched firmly in grasp. He reminds us that greatness belongs to those unafraid to dive headfirst into their destiny.
