Please note that the figure wearing a scarf is Dorelia, and the figure on the left and the curly-haired child appear in other drawn studies. The signature is not the artist's hand, although we are confident the work is by John.

We are grateful to Rebecca John for her assistance in cataloguing the present lot.
