This painting features a doll in a blue dress. The doll is dressed in a vibrant blue gown with lace ruffles along the sleeves and hemline. The dress has a fitted bodice and a voluminous skirt. The doll's arms are made of wood and positioned on the hips. The face is painted with rosy cheeks and lips, framed by a white bonnet with a red ribbon. The doll stands on a pair of black shoes. The focus is on the detail and bright colors of the costume. The style is reminiscent of Charles Demuth.
