Lot 246A: Mexican Folk Art Decorative Witch Marionette
A Mexican Folk Art Decorative Witch Marionette, styled as a folkloric witch figure, likely of contemporary or recent vintage. It features a molded and painted face with an exaggerated nose, blue eyes, and brown hair, topped with a deep red, pointed fabric hat. The doll is dressed in layered fabric clothing, including a white blouse with red string ties on the ruffled cuffs, a beige vertically striped outer skirt, and a deep red underskirt visible over a burlap layer. Its fabric hands are positioned to hold a small wooden stick, and it is depicted sitting astride a broomstick made of natural bristles. An orange tag bearing the handwritten code “246A” is affixed to the left fabric foot, and the number “77” is visible on the left sleeve.
