拍品专文

Chappuis (op. cit.) erroneously catalogued the recto and verso images of the present work as being on two separate sheets. The recto shows a woman holding a conductor's baton. Viewed lengthwise, several studies emerge, but only the head of a bearded man, perhaps a pastiche after Ingres's Jupiter and Thetis (see Chappuis, no. 50), is decipherable. The female figure on the verso is related to Woman, Standing (Chappuis, no. 216) and this side of the sheet actually contains a faint counterproof image of the latter drawing.
