Knitted Doll 1935 - 1942

Jane Iverson's "Knitted Doll" (1935-1942) is a watercolor painting of a simple doll, rendered in profile. The doll is clothed in knitted garments, its features are painted in simple detail, and the background is a muted cream color. This artwork is characteristic of Iverson's focus on everyday objects and the human figure, often exploring themes of childhood and memory in her work. Iverson, a 20th-century American artist, used watercolor to give her paintings a delicate and personal touch. Her work is often referred to as naive or folk art, which makes it even more endearing and captivating.
