COLECCION DEL Sº. Dº. V. CARDERERA / ADQUIRIDA POR EL GOBIERNO EN 1867 (wet stamp, lower right-hand corner).

Historia

See Young woman with forehead wearing a small hat.

Line of provenance: Javier Goya, Mariano Goya, Valentín Carderera, National Library of Madrid.

Análisis artístico

See Young woman with forehead wearing a small hat   corresponding to the first drawing of the Sanlúcar Album or Album A.

A risky drawing showing a woman's buttocks and legs as she lifts her skirts.

According to Gassier, the arm that lifts the skirt is only slightly indicated and, in general, one has the impression that the lower part of the body is poorly harmonised with the bust and the folds of the lifted skirt. He uses three shades of gouache, light grey, medium grey and black, with which he emphasises, with the tip of the brush, the curves of the buttocks and the line of the legs marked transversally by the folds of the garters. He also considers the face as a mask of sarcastic laughter, cut in two by an intense illumination coming from the left.

The obverse of the sheet bears the drawing Young woman with a small hat on her forehead.

Conservación

Paper stuck to the bottom that covers part of the stamp of the purchase from Carderera.
