    Description

    I always liked this sculpture of a crocodile dancing with a lizard.  It reminds me of Heinrich Kley's drawings.  It's 14" tall and has been quickly but crudely carved.  In the process the croc's left arm snapped off so the carver just added a paw to what was left.  I do not know its age but it is not ancient nor recent.
