Josephine Baker<>.

Brush and orange ink over pencil on thin cream wove paper, 1930s. 420x247 mm; 16 1/2x9 3/4 inches. Initialed and inscribed "Nov 29" in pencil, lower margin.

Le Corbusier's encounter with Josephine Baker during the early 1930s might have spurred a transformation in his work, notably his architectural designs, toward a greater sensuality and worldliness.
