Wooden Pig

Wilbur M Rice

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden sculpture of a pig. The pig is the largest object in the center of the composition, displayed in a profile view facing to the right. It has an elongated body, four legs, and pointed ears. The sculpture is crafted in light brown shades, enhancing the wood texture and contrasting with the off-white background. The pig seems to be slightly elevated above a flat surface, with its rounded form creating dimension against the backdrop.
