The Hunter by Johann Huggler (1834-1912) of Brienz - a small town in Bernese Oberland, Canton Bern Switzerland. A signed piece, also a sticker on the bottom "ch. H. Schuh Interlaken" and same information also written in ink. When one looks at the old photographs of Johann Huggler - this is a self image. Johann Huggler was known as the "King of the Carvers" of Brienz. The few carvings that survived until this day pay homage to the mastery with which he carved animals and human figures. It was he who opened the Swiss wood carving school in Brienz, ca. 1870. 24" tall and 8" across the base, ca. 1860 - 70, exceptional, rare and important.
