Description:
These fragments are part of a wooden peg or Grodnerthal doll. The portion on the right is a torso, with slots where the legs attached and the pieces on the left are probably legs. Grodnerthal dolls were first imported to England from Amsterdam in the early 19th century. Earlier peg dolls had layers of gesso on portions of the body not covered with clothing and were painted with facial features and hair. Later in the century, the quality deteriorated, with gesso layers omitted and less detailed carving.
