CAMILLE PISSARRO AND GEORGE W. THORNLEY
Femme au Chat.

Lithograph printed in brown on chine appliqué, circa 1900. 228x190 mm; 9x7 1/2 inches, wide (full ?) margins. Edition of 100. Published by Boussod-Valadon, Paris. A very good impression.

Pissarro likely acted on the advice of Edgar Degas, who had collaborated with Thornley on a suite of lithographs after his drawings (see Reed/Shapiro 25b) during the late 1880s, when he decided to create the current work.
