拍品專文

The present drawing is a preparatory drawing for an oil on canvas composition of this subject, the side of the apse at the east end of the church of St Rémy, Dieppe. Dr Baron comments, 'The scene has hitherto been identified as the chevet of the church of St Jacques [in Dieppe]. In fact it represents the corner of the apse of St Rémy, the second major church in Dieppe, with rue St Rémy in the background. Sickert returned to this motif again in 1913 (see W. Baron, op. cit., no. 437) by which time the little tree in the background had grown to a great height' (see W. Baron, loc. cit.).
