St. Joseph Museums

The image depicts a handcrafted doll dressed in historical military attire, featuring a blue coat with gold-colored buttons and decorative epaulets on the shoulders, as well as a high collar trimmed with lace. The doll has a painted face with detailed facial features and short, sculpted hair. Around its waist, a red sash is tied over a light-colored tunic, while its legs are covered by tall, shiny black boots. Attached to the doll is a small tag with handwritten information that appears to provide cataloging details. The doll is lying on a textured surface, possibly foam, which serves as the background for this display.
