Cigar Store Figure

Albert Ryder

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a man standing on a rectangular base. He is dressed in a brown suit with a lighter brown waistcoat and dark brown shoes. The man is wearing a tall black top hat, and he has long, flowing sideburns. In one hand he holds a small brown beer mug, raised in a toast, while the other hand is positioned near his chest. The sculpture appears to be made of painted wood with realistic details in clothing and accessories.
