Note
On the front, there are three bust-length portraits of women, a sketch of empty frames with dimensions, and the letter 'V' twice. On the reverse, vertically, we can see a sketch for the horse's head that we find in La raison pure (1948), and a four-part composition combining the same horse's head, the woman with long hair, seen from the back, in La robe du soir (1955), a tree and a candlestick, surmounted by a crescent moon, just like the three previous ones, with indications of height ('28') and length ('80').
