细节
Leonora Carrington (British/Mexican 1917-2011)
A Group of Three Drawings
a.) Untitled (Woman with Veil)
signed 'CARRINGTON" (lower left)
ink on paper
8 1/8 x 10 5/8 in. (20.6 x 27 cm.)
Executed circa 1941.
Provenance:
Julien Levy collection, New York (acquired directly from the artist).
Hommage à Julien Levy, Part 2, Paris, Espace Tajan, 8 June 2006, lot 248 (illustrated in color).
Acquired from the above.
The scholar Susan Aberth believes that this work is part of a series of undated notebook drawings more than likely realized by Carrington in Paris or St. Martin, and later acquired by Julian Levy in New York in 1941.
b. ) Untitled (Two Women)
ink on paper
10 x 7 in. (25.4 x 17.8 cm.)

watercolor, ink and graphite on paper
