Note:

Acquired directly from the artist, this fascinating preparatory sketch for lot 69 showcases Sánchez’s working method, and is a privileged look inside the artist’s thought process while highlighting his easy, flowing style. The drawing depicts the central portion of the composition, the woman holding the rattle, which would form the core of the final painting.
