Children at Torii Gate Stealing Banner and Plaque is a 1850 unspecified by Unknown, a Ukiyo-e work, held at Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
This painting shows a scene of children at a torii gate. The gate is tall and red, with a black roof. Two children are shown, one in a yellow robe and the other in a blue robe. They are both holding long sticks and appear to be stealing a banner and plaque from the gate. The children are shown in a playful and mischievous manner, with exaggerated facial expressions and body language. The background of the painting is a light beige color, which helps to highlight the bold colors of the gate and the children's clothing. The artist's use of bold colors and playful composition makes this painting a delightful and engaging work.
