Description: RARE SIGNED Vintage Mexican Folk Art MANUEL JIMENEZ wood carving Jaguar Oaxaca I believe it's from about the 1960s, and it is incredibly rare to find one signed in pencil like this one is. Excellent addition to any Mexican folk art collection! 11.5"L x 2.5"H x 4"W Please review all photos as part of the description. All sales are final. In the 1940s, with the construction of the Pan-American Highway, Oaxaca opened up to tourism, and folk art stores started to be seen in Oaxaca City and at the Monte Alban archeological site. It was at this time as a young child that while tending goats that Manuel Jimenez began carving and selling his creations. Then, eventually, this new art form caught on in neighboring towns. #vintagemexicanfolkart #animalitos #oaxaca #alebrije #mexicanwoodcarving #mexicanfolkart #oaxacanwoodcarving #oaxacan #oaxacananimals #alebrijes
