More Information

Some of these sketches, especially those on the recto, appear to be related to molar teeth and their roots. The figure lower right on the recto is linked with Reclining Woman LH 84, whilst those upper centre on the verso relate to Mother and Child LH 82 - both stone carvings made in 1930.
