A Japanese crafted picture of a child with his toy , created using a traditional art called Oshi-e Kurumi.

The figure is made by wrapping fabrics around a foam thus creating a 3D figure. In this example the fabric is folded to create a figure and the figure has been set against a buff coloured paper background.

There is a small red figure drawn in red ink lower left which I assume is the signature of the artist.

Note there is a very tiny stain on the toy horse’s forehead.

Estimate dated mid 20th century.

In excellent condition. Presented in a black wood frame which is in generally good condition. The back paper has been opened up.

Glazed and ready to hang.

Measures 12x11” including the frame.
