ALEXANDER ARCHIPENKO
Sculpture Musicale.

Pen and black ink, pencil and ball-point pen and blue ink on pale blue wove paper, double-sided. 500x325 mm; 19 3/4x12 7/8 inches. Signed and titled in ball-point pen and blue ink, upper margin recto, and extensively annotated with fabrication, installation and color notes in ball-point pen and blue ink recto and verso.

A fascinating working drawing, showing ideas for a large-scale, outdoor polychrome sculpture--seemingly based on the form of a female nude.
