A pencil sketch of a young school boy called Seitoku, possibly the brother of Shizue. Probably one of the children of ours servants while we lived in Okinawa, Japan from 1953 to 1955. He is depicted in his school uniform which included this slightly unusual four cornered cap. The Japanese characters on the drawing translate to his name. At the time my mother was trying to learn some Japanese.
