Prosthetic Doll Leg

I blogged earlier about Marina Bychkova‘s doll creations. She sometimes tattoos her porcelain dolls with the most intricate and interesting designs. I’m just posting this, a doll leg painted as a vintage prosthetic, because it’s so cool.

This doll is based on the tragic literary figure Anna Karenina (if she had survived her ultimate suicide attempt with major damages to her body, consequently having to wear an orthopedic corset, arm brace, and prosthetic left leg). Images of the rest of the doll after the cut.

An explanation from Marina can be found on her blog here.

I’ve decided to try and cross porcelain tattooing to a new construction by tattooing a oldness, prosthetic limb on Bewitched Bird’s leg.

@ Julie20: I think that’ll be beautiful.
