About this work

This is a simple wooden statue of a small, chubby child standing straight up. The figure has a big head with a smooth, rounded top, and its arms hang loosely at its sides. The body is blocky, with short legs and a small base to hold it steady. The statue looks like it’s made to look a little rough—no fancy details, just smooth shapes. The wood has a warm, earthy tone, and the child’s face is calm and blank. If you like this kind of simple, sturdy figure, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
