Note: |
The Maya and Anatoly Bekkerman collection also includes a signed sketch for this painting in colored pencil. It gives the place and date of the work. The date was originally on the painting but was later replaced by the artist with a yellow tree. The painting blends immediate impressions with recollections of the famous Henri Rousseau painting Sleeping Gypsy, which had been shown at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in the early 1940s. Another version of the work exists (earlier, in the collection of P. Sammartino, exhibited in D. Burliuk. 55 Years of Painting. New York. Lido Galleries, 1962. No. 22). |
