Signed 'Francis Picabia' lower left. On the reverse titled "L'Impuissance" and erroneously dated "1920" in pencil by an unknown hand.With a photo-certificate by Pierre Calte, Comité Francis Picabia, Paris dated 16 Oktober 2013 (reg. no. 3398); we would like to thank the Comité Picabia, Paris, for additional information.William Camfield remarked on the present drawing: "By 1933 the 'transparences' were giving way to solid, more-or-less naturalistic images which dominated Picabia's work until 1945. (...) "The Two Lovers" attributable to the late 1930s, sets the range of quality in his career."(William Camfield, op. cit., Paris 1972, p. 31).
