Lot Essay

The present lot and lots 188, 199 and 200 were acquired by the sculptor and art collector Eliza Miller and her companion Janet de Coux, also a sculptor, in the early 1970's in Switzerland when they visited the artist. Tobey was a cousin of Janet's mother, but the two had not met before. Correspondence between Janet and Mark Tobey is kept in the Archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution.
