A Boy
Augustus Edwin John R.A., O.M. 1878 - 1961
Summary
A post-impressionist half-length frontal portrait of Edwin John, son of the artist, as a young boy in an open-necked shirt, with tousled fair hair. He sits with his arms folded, against a plain background. He looks at the viewer with a stern expression. The paint application consists of daubs and patches of paint; this is especially evident in the shirt.
