Provenance | -?- In Restellini text: l'ange au visage grave, Musée du Luxembourg, 2002 This work was Nº 8 titled "Portrait de Count W - unfinished" at Berthe weill exhibition in 1917, acquired to Zborowski in 1919 by "a great french family of collectors" where ir remained until it surfaced in the English market in the 70´s It was never on an exhibition since 1917. In the french edition he adds "by the intermediation of Paul Guillaume?" Restellini in his book l'ange au visage grave, Musée du Luxembourg, 2002, p. 286 presents another version of the same diptic in a small picture next to the painting, clearly another version of the one printed by the gallery, I have no idea if they printed two brochures.
