Puppe by Henry Tomaszewski, c. 1939

This charming design study by Polish artist Henry Tomaszewski, dated around 1939, depicts a wooden doll seen from behind. The figure features thick, stylized braids and a simple dress, rendered with a wood-grain texture that suggests it was a blueprint for a carved sculpture. Tomaszewski, who later became famous for his bold movie posters, often used this kind of rustic, folk-art aesthetic, turning simple forms into expressive characters.
