This painting shows a man in a dark suit with a blue, yellow, and red sash—it looks like a flag. Behind him, a bright red background contrasts with a busy scene of kids in school uniforms. Some children are standing in rows, others are dancing in a circle, and a few are playing near a field with a small building and construction equipment in the distance.
The man’s serious face stands out against the lively, colorful background. The painting feels simple and bold, almost like a child’s drawing but with careful details. The artist signed it in the top-right corner with the year 1979.
