The human kite has all the possibilities of caricature in it, and there are some very funny attempts. “Just Boy,” [Fig. 55], is a good one, and “Foxy Grandpa” is popular. [Fig. 56] is the “Squared Chinaman”. The “Clown and Donkey,” [Fig. 57], is rather easy, being a combination of three tailless kites. The “Dutch Girl” makes a good kite, also “Me Happy,” [Fig. 58]. In these as in the previous sub-group, much of the effect is dependent on skilful handling of brush, after the kite has been constructed. The flying depends much on the attachment of bridle and balancers.
