FERNAND LÉGER Self Portrait.
Pen and brown ink on thin wove paper mounted on card, 1930s. 285x223 mm; 11 1/4x8 3/4 inches. Initialed in pen and brown ink, lower right recto.
Acquired directly from the artist by Ladislas Segy in Paris, circa 1930s; thence by descent to Helena Segy. Segy, an eminent dealer and scholar of African art, built relationships with several modern artists in the 1930s and amassed a collection of self portraits both as gifts and in exchange for African artworks.
