Modèle drapé, debout devant une balustrade

Modèle drapé, debout devant une balustrade was originally intended as a lithograph, and may have been drawn as such in Paris in late October or early November 1891. It is dated from the technique and comparison with two successful lithographs, Nude Model, Back View c045 and Draped Figure, Standing c046. 1 However, after being rejected as a lithograph, the composition could well have been redrawn in pen and ink in the following year.
