Notes

It should be noted that in spite of the artist's name and date on the versos of the academic drawings from this period (FWN2073-2079), it is by no means certain that Cezanne executed them. The name of the artist was often written by the professor to facilitate identification as there were many students in the same class drawing the same model.
