Man and His Goat On A Flying Carpet

Google Street View

Serendipity brought me to this strange wooden(?) sculpture of  a man and his goat on a flying carpet. The sculpture is located near the interchange between Hwy 26 and 27, Norra (=Northern) Nissastigen, Gislaved,  Sweden.

No details about this sculpture could be found on the WWW. Although few images of the sculpture are available on the Net, but these do not give any details.  Here is one from Flickr;

Perhaps some of my readers could tell me more about it.
