My Fella


This is piece from an exhibition, "Arts of Japan: The John C. Weber Collection", that was showing at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. They call it 'Hotei' and attribute it to Kano Masanubo (15th-16th century). I call it 'My Fella' because I fell in love with him at first sight. I attribute that to his cheerful disposition and rub-able belly.
