T01653 Paysage aride (Arid Landscape) c.1905

Not inscribed
Pastel on grey paper, 12 3/4 x 19 5/8 (32.4 x 50)
Presented by Roberta González 1972

This landscape and T01650 can be tentatively dated 1905 because of certain similarities to the three dated landscapes of that year, Cerni pls.399, 405 and 411. The verso of this one has an unfinished drawing of a tree and some rocks, also in black pastel.
