DOLL

Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image depicts an old, worn doll lying on a textured white surface, dressed in tattered black clothing. The doll has a dark-colored face with visible signs of wear and chipping, revealing parts of a lighter underlying material. Its eyes are dark, and a bright red color is painted on its lips, though this paint is also worn. The clothing appears to be made of fabric that has frayed and torn over time, exposing some of the underlying structure. Attached to the doll is a handwritten label that identifies it with specific information. The doll's legs are crafted from a material resembling wood, with painted shoes. The overall condition suggests the doll is quite old and has been affected by significant use or age-related deterioration.
