Jointed horse and rider with jointed limbs
Flexible to a detail: jointed dolls from Gröden
This jointed horse with rider was made from stained nut wood by Josef Insam's company at Neuhaus in St. Christina and was put together using 104 individual pieces. Jointed, turned figurines (for academic purposes or puppets) were produced to a height of 201 cm. Their ball-and-socket joints allowed numerous body positions and they were intended for painters and sculptors, schools and academies.
