This is a wonderful gaucho sitting on a cutted tree having mate. Sure this jug is to conserve the hot water that is used to take mate and is a set with the matte I posted previously http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/136693-two-mate-la-riojana?in=user
The detail of the dress he wares is remarkable, he has the sleaves of he skirt arremangadas (do not know how to say it in English) so that he is having a little brake while working, he has the poncho in one of the shoulders, so that the weather changes from the sunny spring day to a windy and cold he can use it. He is wearing the bombacha and the distinctive belt with silver coins. Here something in English about gaucho, I do not think is true what says holderhttp://www.argentinaindependent.com/top-story/the-gaucho-yesterday-and-today/
