拍品專文

Follette belonged to La Mère Paul (née Eugénie Lavergne), the wife of Paul Graff who ran the Casino-Hotel in Pourville where Monet stayed in 1882. La Mère Paul and Follette feature in another work of 1882 (W.745; Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts), painted when she was 63 years old, while Paul himself is the subject of another work from the same year (W.744) in the Österreichische Galerie in Vienna.
