Young Boy with Umbrella

This piece shows a young boy sitting on something that looks like a tree stump holding his knees to his chest. He faces the left side of the piece with his eyes closed, and appears to be blowing a bubble. An umbrella is leaning beside him with a bird perched on top of its handle. This is definitely a plan for an illustration both because of the improbability of the bird being there and because the style matches much of Ingle's known illustration work.

Bertha May Ingle

c. 1920: Part of a notebook that's contents are predominantly from this time. This makes sense with the timeline of when she did most of her illustration work, which was the 20s and 30s.
