About this work

Description

Postcard showing Kaatje standing next to an average sized man in a suit looking up at her. She is wearing an ankle length dress with a belt and cloth roses over her left shoulder. Her hair is short and curly. She has a tiara round her brow. Behind them is what looks like a stage backdrop painted with curtains around a window. The card would probably have been sold as a souvenir at places where she was exhibited as part of a freak or variety show.
