EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of a vintage doll known as "Beb Caractère". Created in Germany during the early 1900s, this delicate toy showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that was characteristic of that era. The doll's head, made from bisque porcelain, exudes a sense of innocence with its gentle expression and lifelike features. Adorned with an elegant embroidered dress and bonnet, Beb Caractère epitomizes sophistication and refinement in children's fashion. The artist behind this remarkable creation is Kestner, renowned for their mastery in crafting dolls that were both realistic and enchanting. This particular artwork dates back to 1915 when it first captured hearts with its charm. Photographed by Graziella Pellicci sometime between 1980-1990, this print serves as a visual tribute to the enduring legacy of Beb Caractère. It offers us a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistry involved but also how fashion for children has evolved over time.
