Provenance: the estate of Olive Boyd Beaham Lansburgh, Kansas City, Missouri and Eagle Point, Oregon. A second work in this auction titled "Venezuela Sketches" by Pissarro, also from the estate of Olive Boyd Beaham Lansburgh, retains a label from the William Rockhill Nelson Gallery, "Lent by Mr. and Mrs. Gordon T. Beaham Jr.", Olive Landsburgh's parents.

This drawing by Camille Pissaro was bid on and won in our November 4 auction by a telephone bidder from Leipzig Germany named Roland Freyer. Mr. Freyer, it turns out, is a serial non-paying bidder. Thus, we are re-offering this lot with the same provenance and guarantee as before and again to the highest bidder without reserve.

Measures 13.5 x 11 inches, 21 x 17.5 inch frame.

We happily provide seamless in-house packing and shipping services on nearly everything we sell.

Very good condition overall, there are no issues of damage, stain, tears or repair, the work has not been laid down.
