Provenance: Auguste Tricaud, Paris, with his monogram stamp (Lugt 182). Tricaud was a prominent collector of the work of Félicien Rops and Louis Legrand. An unusually fine provenance for such an fine drawing.
Old hinges and glue dots on the verso, in the lower left sheet corner leading to a small area of paper loss. These conditions not affecting the quality of the image. The sheet and the colors remain very fresh.
