When I first saw this boy, I strongly disliked him. However, when I spent some time with him and got to know him... I had a change of heart. Here are some questions to guide you in your reading. I'll have a video of my reading up soon!
What's your first impression of this boy? Does he look pleasant and friendly?
What kind of boy is this? Rich? Uneducated?
Where is he? Relaxing on a beach towel?
Imagine the space around him.
What is in front of him?
What is behind him?
Why did he come here? To meet with friends?
Hint: Click on the images to see the full-sized versions!
Can you see what is etched in here?
Who did this?
What does it show about the significance of this spot to him?
What is he doing?
Is he staring at something specific, or is he still in thought?
What is his state of mind as he's looking?
Imagine what he could be thinking to himself.
My full reading of this sculpture is coming soon!
