St. Joseph Museums

The image features a handcrafted doll with a simple, rustic appearance, dressed in traditional attire. The doll wears a red patterned headscarf tied under the chin, a beige top, and a long black skirt with a patch sewn onto it. The arms of the doll are crossed, holding a small bundle of twigs wrapped in burlap. A handwritten tag is attached to one arm, inscribed with the word "Europe" in cursive. The doll is set against a background of textured white fabric with a bubble-wrap-like texture, which adds contrast to the simplicity and earthiness of the doll's design.
