We would like to thank Dr. Betsy Fahlman, art historian and recognized scholar on the work of Guy Pène Du Bois for her kind assistance in cataloguing this lot.

The board is flat and in good, stable condition. The paint surface is in good, clean condition. There are minor frame abrasions along the extreme edges. Upon inspection under ultraviolet light, there are pindots of inpainting visible in all four quadrants, most notably in the lower left corner and directly to the left of the figure's gold necklace.
