    I always wonder why a craftsman invests so much time in the execution of a sculpture, only to monogram it then with only one or two letters ...
    Anyway, this almost hyperrealistic wild boar is dated to the year '76 and monogrammed twice with a "W" or "M".
    Actually, this piece does not fit into my collection scheme but the quality of the craft convinced me then.
    Would be nice to find out where from and who did it...

      Dear Keramikos,
      You are right the letters were formed by pressing a stamp into the clay, and the numbers were done free-hand. I believe it is a W as well... But I haven't found a simklar piece...
