Lot Essay

The famous fashion designers and important collectors Jacques Doucet and Paul Poirét were patrons of Léon Indenbaum. The present work is from a series of three to five works ordered by Doucet in 1917. Indenbaum decided to keep this example as it depicts his wife and daughter. Visible in a 1974 photograph of the artist's studio in Opio (opposite), the work has remained in the collection of the artist's family ever since.
