- Etudes pour la Vierge "Visage", 3e pl. (D. 638)
- Image: 215 by 169mm; 8 1/2 by 6 5/8 in
- Sheet: 504 by 324mm; 19 7/8 by 12 3/4 in
Lithograph, 1950-1951, signed in pencil, annotated 1/8 épr. d'artiste, on china supported on BFK Rives wove paper, the full sheet, in good condition apart from some occasional fox marks and handling marks, mostly at edges of sheet, pinholes at corners
Condition
In our opinion although the work is signed by the artist, the numbering and annotation is from another hand. The handling mark is at the upper right corner. There is also a very slight handling crease in the same corner.
