A tiny tear causing no effect at the top of the leaf. The drawing has been authenticated by M. Franck Leibovici Henri Michaux's beneficiary and will be entered into the catalogue raisonné in preparation.

It is in 1946 in the preface to Peinture et Dessins entitled Thinking about the phenomenon of painting ' that Michaux explains the rules of this art aiming to paint the portrait of temperaments 15.' Indeed for him to paint a face is to project the essence on to the paper or canvas: There is a certain inner ghost that you should be able to paint and not just the nose the eyes the hair that we can see on the outside. often as tough as old boots.
