Another in the series, here a young, blue-eyed and red-lipped woman with one eye covered by a snow-flake patterned glove, is playfully enjoying life in the Swiss Alps. With a red label announcing the 1938 F.I.S. ski races added on to skillfully appear as if it were tucked into the glove. This is the smaller format. Matter p. 102, Weill p. 255 no. 448.
