Clown and child playing the violin 20 pages (72.7 x 53 cm) Made by Matabei Goto

The orange and green tones give this painting a warm and enchanting atmosphere. The bold interplay of green and orange tones perfectly expresses depth and scene transitions.

The clown holds a violin and is dressed in a bright orange costume. His music dances lightly like the wind, bringing fun and joy to the hearts of his audience.

The clown's smiling face symbolizes the joy of playing music and sharing it with the audience, and its brightness spreads happy energy to those around it.

The cart is a symbol of his journey and adventure, and represents his hope for the unknown world to come. This painting is a magical fusion of orange and green that brings heartwarming emotion and joy to the viewers. The moments created by clowns, children, women, and men together are an intersection of music and emotion that will resonate in the hearts of viewers.
