Description: | Models like this were made in India in the 1800s and early 1900s, especially for sale to British people. The faces and clothing are sometimes extremely well modelled, and were not simply children's dolls. This model represents a high ranking servant. This is the only model in the Hancock Museum collection that has a maker's mark, and is labelled 'Sheerawshandra p.a.length Kishnagur' | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East other cultures | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
