Note:
In a letter written of February 6, 1957 to the former owner of the painting, Plaskett writes the following about this lot, which was painted in the salon of the apartment of Mme. Frere in Paris. “The Shades of Condorcet was begun in 1954 and underwent many transformations and repaintings before it was finished late in 1955...”
A copy of the entire letter is available to the purchaser of this lot.
