Doll

Harry Grossen

National Gallery of Art

A doll wearing a long-sleeved dress that reaches its feet is the largest object in the image. The color palette is mainly composed of soft whites and creams for the dress, with some vibrant blue on the chest area, and subtle skin tones for the face and hands. Positioned in the center of the image, the doll has a blue bow on its chest and long black hair. Below the doll, there is a smaller sketch of a head in profile on the left side of the image.
