William H. Johnson (1901-1970) was one America's most important African American painters. I admire his work immensely. I have this in my office/upstairs hall.
A number of years ago...maybe 15...at a gift shop in the neighborhood, I found these dolls.
I do not know the craftman's name but I do remember that she modeled her dolls after William H. Johnson characters. They are special.
