Leather Bodied Doll c. 1936

"Leather Bodied Doll" (c. 1936) is a watercolor painting by Jane Iverson, an American artist known for her unique depictions of dolls and figures. The artwork features a simple yet evocative image of a doll rendered in a minimalist style. The doll is depicted in a standing position, its leather body painted in soft, muted tones, giving it a sense of fragility and vulnerability. Iverson's work often explored themes of childhood, memory, and the passage of time, making this piece a compelling example of her artistic vision.
