This pastel was in an exhibition, and was purchased on opening night by a man who declared that he was in love with the pastel and it would hang in his study. He collected his picture at the end of the show only to return it the next day. When my dealer inquired as to the problem, he reluctantly admitted that it had been pointed out to him that the model in the pastel was a dead ringer for his sister-in-law.
