Figure of a water carrier, Vietnam, Mid-20th century
Height 32cm
Bronze statuette depicting a water carrier in a traditional Vietnamese pose. The figure holds a toy on his shoulders, from which two bags of water hang on ropes. The carrier wears a conical hat (nón lá) and traditional clothing, both rendered with meticulous attention to detail that highlights elements of Vietnamese daily life. The expressive face, with a focused expression, lends the work a touch of realism.
