Other | Not in D'Atri papers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This painting still figures as lost (stolen) during the II world war under the Number: 264454 The title of the lost painting is the notary / Le notaire Inv. Nº AI1632 The last time the painting was exhibited was the 1981 exhibition in Paris at the Musée de Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, but the French Museum did not reacted to the situation or were not informed by the owner at that time (or maybe the owner was not aware of the situation?). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Image of the painting in display at the Musée du Jeu de Paume in 1933: As can be seen in the image the painting is similar in size to "girl with loose shirt" (81.5 x 55.6 cm) so the given size of 92 x 60 is probably wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Signature: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Detail of the ear where the drawing is clearly visible and is painted in color |
