WOW! It is not very often the elusive Madame Alexander Composition
Portrait "Lady of Fashion" dolls come on the market. This is a 21"
composition portrait identified as "Renoir" in the Alexander archive. It
is more often identified as "Lady Windermere" as in "American
Composition Dolls" Volume Two by Ursula R. Mertz. See photo on page 25.
The doll is in good condition with light crazing on her composition as
seen in the photos. The facial complexion paint is vibrant and
has not been retouched. The hand painted lashes and eyebrows are
signature features of the portrait dolls, as are the blue painted
eyelids, gray eye shadow and bright lip color. The full mohair wig is in
the original set. This doll is wearing her original outfit with just
the stockings, hat, and panties replaced. The composition 21"
portrait dolls were originally marketed in 1938. They were discontinued
during the WWII era, reappearing in 1946 when more characters were added
to the group. Some of the original set were re-named in the later
group. The dolls never had specific names on their tags to help with
identification. This doll is listed along with the Orchid Princess Portrait doll.
