Exqusite and dynamic!
I have a lot of folk art, including a number of other pieces from John Barrow, and I am mostly only interested in depictions of animals, plants, and geometric forms, not humans. However the colors of the women's dress, combined with the condor, make this one of only a handful of pieces I have in my collection depicting humans, and I am extremely happy with it! One thing I realized I especially love about this piece is the dynamism that comes from having the condor sticking out away from the piece's center of gravity.

Excellent
I'm very much satisfied with this fine Acintya statuette. The design inspiration is wonderful, back to the golden era of pre-war masters. The making is at the highest standard of precision and quality, with this extremely smooth surface finish in every details . Nyoman Sudiana is a great carver. In addition to that, the shipment by Fedex was incredibly quick (6 days to my home in France) with rendez-vous organised by phone. Thank you everybody for having made this possible.
