Netsuke of a Boar
Wooden sculpture of a boar by an unknown artist, titled "Netsuke of a Boar". The boar is lying down, facing left. The sculpture is made of dark brown wood with visible wood grain texture. The boar has a distinctive tusk on the left side of its mouth, which curls upwards. Its eyes are small. The boar's ears are small and pointed. The sculpture has a glossy finish, particularly on the back and right front leg. The background is light gray. The boar's front right leg is bent, while the back legs are not visible. The sculpture appears to be a netsuke, a type of traditional Japanese miniature sculpture. The overall shape of the boar is compact and rounded. The boar's snout is short and rounded.
