Doll - "Annie Sampson"

Edith Towner

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person standing in a straight, frontal position with their entire body visible from head to toe. The person has a painted or drawn face with circular red cheeks and a neutral expression, wearing a black headband or veil over their hair. They wear an off-shoulder, short-sleeved, golden-yellow top and a voluminous pink skirt that reaches below the knees. The attire is paired with gray patterned stockings and black flat shoes. There is no jewelry visible, and the person does not hold any objects. The background is plain and beige.
