Freckled Boy with Bird on Hand, Beautiful Vintage Kodak Print Photograph carved cryptomeria toad or else pressing it tightlyA very tender image, and a very gentle looking young man. I really love the framing of the photo, centered on the bird perched on the boy's curled hand, with the cropping of his face calling attention to the cock of his head, freckled cheeks and very dreamy eyes. 4 1 8 x 5 1 2 and in very good condition.
