This picture was taken by Bo Ruan, a database and projects administrator in the Office of Development and Alumni Relations. It was taken on August 13 2010 at the Toy Museum in Munich, Germany.

In a museum showing the history of children's favourite toys, this doll stood out, catching your attention. I found it difficult to walk past and forget her haunting gaze juxtaposed with her warm smile.

This is the last image in this month's perspectives. Back to homepage|.
