Wooden puppet: lamplighter in a red scarf
Marionette puppet: carved wooden puppets on strings: lacquered faces, cloth costumes, tow hair.
The lamplighter close up: a carved face under lacquer, painted moustache and rosy cheeks, a red knitted scarf at the chin. The background is blurred. Strings are taut at the shoulders and run upward.
