The Dummy’s Art Deco Head: A 1920 Study In Four Photographs

We love these 1920 photographs taken in the art deco style of a store dummy’s head. This hypnotic mannequin was most likely produced in Paris by Siegel & Stockman – years before Fritz Lang epitomised the look in Maria, heroine of the movie Metropolis (1927).
