St. Joseph Museums

The image depicts a handcrafted figure of a drummer with a dark, sculpted body adorned with blue and white beaded jewelry, including a necklace and bracelets. The figure stands on a square base covered with a textured green surface, wearing an elaborate headdress made of grayish-brown and white fur, giving it a striking appearance. The drum in front of the figure is covered with a brown cloth, secured with beige strings. The figure's feet appear to have furry anklets, adding an authentic touch to its attire. Additionally, a label with the inscription "2023.10.105" is attached to the base, suggesting it might be a catalog or inventory number.
