Japanese Boy Building a Man-of-War

J. C. Arter

Cleveland Museum of Art

A young boy, wearing a gray robe and headband, crouches on the ground while holding a Japanese toy. He has a baby on his back, dressed in pink with a white head covering. The boy is focused on a man-of-war kite, which is propped up on a wooden stand. The kite has a long tail and several small decorations. In the background, there are stone steps leading up to a grassy area with rocks and purple flowers. The scene appears to be set in a rural or natural setting.
