Notes
According to Chappuis (1973, no. 89), this drawing is "probably half a page from the sketchbook 10.3 x 17 cm; 89a would be on the reverse side of the other half. Verso: formerly 89a according to Venturi"
This work is part of a sketchbook:
Sketchbook 10.3 x 17, 1863–1865, 1869–1873 (3001)
Sketchbook 10.3 x 17, 1863–1865, 1869–1873 (3001)
The sketchbook is unnumbered and was disbanded in the 1930s. Most of the sheets are held in the Kunstmuseum Basel, but some were sold separately. Since the sequence is unknown, the FWN numbers have been randomly assigned. The sheets are listed here as individual pages as opposed to how they may have appeared in the sketchbook with the exception of FWN 3001-01a/b, which was separated on two half-sheets.
