Description
8 1/2" (22 cm.) One-piece bisque figure of little girl posed as though standing in a pond of water on a chilly morning, with blonde sculpted hair, rounded googly eyes, button nose, "O" shaped mouth. The figure is impressed "O'Neill" at the back of the base. A very curious and historically important signature as it is generally accepted that the September Morn figure was designed by Grace Drayton, a contemporary artist of O'Neill whose drawings were also created as dolls. The reason for this signature remains a mystery. Germany, circa 1912.
