Notes
This investigation marks the work as not located in the D’Atri papers.
This investigation records that this version was submitted with a photographic certificate from the Archives Légales Amedeo Modigliani dated 20 April 2004, Paris. The same date is recorded for the certificate accompanying the Christina sold at Bonhams, London, 21 June 2004, lot 53 (file 1916-w-83). This investigation notes that the dimensions do not match and that the background of the present version is not blue.
A restoration dossier from Restauro Arte BML, Verona, is recorded with the submission.
Published documentation for this file is thin. Catalogue numbers, exhibitions and bibliography are given only where the source recorded them.
This investigation marked several fields as still being checked. The facts above are those already published; where sources disagree, both readings are given.
