Dancing Doll

Mina Lowry

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden sculpture resembling a human figure. The figure stands upright with arms held close to the sides. The face has a simplistic expression with prominent features such as eyes and lips, topped with a flat cap-like object. The body consists of jointed sections, suggesting movable limbs, and appears to be without any clothing. There is no visible jewelry or objects held by the sculpture. The background is plain, with a beige or light brown color that highlights the dark shade of the sculpture.
