Description
The print depicts the artsit's son, Jean, seated on a wooden horse. It is a picture with strong emotional content. It has been painted in 1919 and later it was made as an etching. The organization of the composition seems to have been become easily,fact that indicates the absolute familiarity of Galanis with the use of etching's technique. The figure of the small child, the decor, the toy, the background and the chiaroscuros are harmonized perfectly with each other.
