Child's Sword

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Child's Sword by artist is a long, thin sword with a slender blade and a handle at the top. The handle features a textured grip wrapped in what appears to be wire or cord and a metal pommel at the top. A curved metal guard extends from the handle, protecting the hand. The sword's overall color is dark, suggesting age or wear. The background behind the sword transitions from dark at the top to light at the bottom.
