Sculpted Figure. USA. Tom Clark. Signed. Lawrence. Man of Color Seated on a Basket Amid Peanut Hulls, Corn, & Black-eyed Peas. 1981. 8.5"H

(Aquarius, 1981) This appears to be Uncle Remus, but it is named for the model, a gentleman from Davidson, North Carolina. The figure is seated on a large basket in the back yard, amid peanut hulls, corn and black-eyed peas. Because he is a miniature person, there should be no coin placed on the statue. however, this one is the exception which proves the rule. An Irish coin with a dolphin was added because Lawrence seems to be telling a fish tale!
