Folk Art Drawing "Going To School"

Signed O.W. Clark 1911, 4 3/4" x 7" including frame

This charming pen and ink drawing depicts a beautiful young girl getting ready for school. The subject's colorful red cloak, reminiscent of Little Red Riding Hood, calls attention to this piece, and her naively rendered lunch pail, textbook, footstool, and script add to the folky appeal of this lovely little drawing.
