National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden puppet positioned upright with its arms extended to the sides. It has exaggerated facial features, including a prominent nose, distinct eyebrows, a black beard and mustache. The puppet wears a red headscarf with white dots, a red shirt, and a colorful lower garment with green and black designs. A green scarf is tied around its neck. The hands of the puppet are wooden. The background is plain beige and the image is bordered by a thick paper-like frame.
