Doll 1939

Carl Buergerniss’s 1939 watercolor painting “Doll” depicts a simple, handmade doll in a pink dress and a green apron. The doll’s face, with its large, painted eyes, is slightly disfigured, creating a sense of vulnerability. The artist’s signature, “Carl Buergerniss”, is discreetly placed in the lower right corner of the image. This piece reflects the artist’s interest in everyday objects and folk art, capturing the charm of a childhood artifact.
