Netsuke

The Netsuke by an unknown artist depicts a sculpture of a man and a child. The man is larger and standing, while the child kneels beside him. The man has a large head with a distinctive facial expression, featuring a bulbous nose and mouth. He wears a long-sleeved top with a belt around his waist and has a protruding stomach. His right hand is raised with the palm facing outwards and to the right. His left arm extends down to the child. The child sits on their knees, back to the man, with their head down and arms tucked under their body. The sculpture appears to be made of dark brown wood with a glossy finish. The background of the image is light gray.
