| Description |
At first he seems to be in deep thought or
meditation. His head is turned slightly
downwards, his hands firmly planted on his
knees. But when he is tipped upwards his
expression changes and a wonderful smile
illuminates his face. The left eye is somewhat
askew, his large nose curved at the tip, his back
hunched,- all adding to his charm. He is like a
child's imaginary friend, and may indeed have
been held lovingly by a child long ago. Just
seeing this happy fellow will brighten your day.
- (PF.4373)
