Seated Model Sailor

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Seated Model Sailor by Isamu Noguchi, depicts a small, brown, wooden sculpture of a seated figure. The figure appears to be carved from wood and is painted brown with some gold, black, and red paint. The figure has a rounded head with short black hair and a face with a nose, mouth, and eyes. The figure is sitting on a rectangular base with its arms crossed over its chest and bent legs. The sculpture appears old and worn, with some of the paint chipped off. It is set against a grey background that fades to black.
