Comment(s): For this image Leger composed at least five works with an almost identical composition but each different in both coloration and minor details. His “Woman with a Bird on a Red Background,” the cover image of “Fernand Leger: Oeuvres de 1905 a 1952” (Christian Zervos) is virtually the same composition, but not identical, to the gouache on paper that sold at Sotheby’s New York, November 3 2011, lot #142. Another gouache on paper with a white background, very similar to our example but with different coloration, is cited by Artnet. Image copyright © Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York.
