拍品專文

The handling and composition of the present drawing are reminiscent of Boilly's La Retour de la Promenade, exhibited at the Salon of 1796, suggesting a similar date for both works (Louis Boilly 1761-1845, exhib. cat., Paris, Musée Marmottan, 1984, no. 12). Although not directly related to painting, the figure group in this drawing is found in a painting formerly with Galerie Seligmann, Paris.
The drawing will be included in the catalogue raisonné currently being prepared by Etienne Bréton and Pascal Zuber.
