We would like to thank Dominique Bermann-Martin, heir to the André Lhote archives and in charge of the artist's catalogue raisonné, for informing us that this drawing was a project for the illustrations in Jean Cocteau's book Escales, which André Lhote illustrated and designed in 1920 (published by La Sirène).
