Restellini in private Dossier for Levy Gallery dates this work in 1918 (David Lévy Fine Art Stand at Masterpiece London 2019)
Apparently the X-ray showed under the actual image a reused canvas with a portrait of Jeanne Hébuterne face, this information comes from Marc Restellini so it will go against his
own information saying that Modigliani was supported by Guillaume/Zborowski so he had plenty of canvases and didn't had to use poor media or reuse canvases since 1915.
X ray presented by Restellini:
this would be a sketch for the composition dated 1919 in Jerusalem Museum:

Detail of signature in visible normal light:

Nose is completely unique, there is no other similar perfect nose all over Modigliani production.

Detail of the ear where the drawing is clearly visible and is painted over the color (on top of the color)

The painting probably was restored or cleaned since the image visible after the Bonn exhibit show much more the black bow (but I don't have trustable information):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The painting is supposedly the bust sketch for the unsigned three-quarter painting.
Differences between both works are more than obvious.
This image shows both works mounted one on the other in the same size.
Hair, position of the eyes, width of the neck and volume of the head are clearly different.
