PUPPET

The image features a traditional puppet with a carved face and articulated limbs, adorned in an intricately embellished red and turquoise garment. The puppet has a serene expression with a delicate, white complexion, and its attire is richly decorated with gold embroidery and sequins, creating a floral pattern that covers the fabric. Prominent sticks extend from the bottom of the puppet, suggesting it is controlled as a rod puppet. The arms, slightly raised, have small hands protruding from the elaborate sleeves; one hand holds a string with a tag attached. The background consists of a textured, speckled surface, providing contrast to the ornate design of the puppet. Tags with handwritten notes are attached to the puppet, indicating cataloging or historical significance.
