Absolutely love the Dada dolls. The National Gallery of Art had a Dada exhibit now over 12 years ago which I had the fortune of seeing. Was so cool to see the items in person as opposed to photos.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember the dolls being shown.
Dolls are a secret passion of mine.

Not so secret, in my case. :)
ReplyDeleteShe looks like Marz in this photo.
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, bink! I didn't even see that till you pointed it out.
ReplyDeleteSomeone once said Marz looks like Prince Charles-- shared German ancestry??? :)
I wondered about the resemblance, and then I thought, Pretty presumptuous, I've only seen Marz in a handful of photographs on your blog. But I thought there was a resemblance.
ReplyDeleteMICHAEL: Ha! You and bink spotted it, and I didn't! Maybe I was mostly seeing the dolls?
