About This Item
?Paris, 1920. Sheet size ca. 270 x 210 mm. Executed in black, blue, red, and white crayon and chalk on heavy tan wove paper. Signed by the artist at lower right, with a preparatory sketch (head only) in red chalk at upper right.
The conductor is depicted in formal dress with baton in hand.
Minor wear to lower right corner; slightly browned; several small pinholes to blank areas; light impression of former mat to extreme edges. This drawing is possibly a depiction of the Russian conductor Serge Koussevitzky (1874-1951) however this attribution is debatable.
