Old Folk Art Dutch Girl in Excellent Paint civil war matches San Jose MissionJust a really excellent paint job on this old folk art Dutch girl, what color! Plus I really like the shape of her bonnet, which covers her head entirely. Plus the sway of her arms makes it look as if she should be carrying a pie; I'd hang her in the kitchen! 8 1 2"t x 7 1 4" w measured on the square. Very good overall condition, perfectly aged, with one loss to one side on the hands.
