One of the drawings in Richard's first solo show, at the Goupil Gallery in London in 1929. Catalogue no. 39. Previously it has been attributed to no. 32 in the exhibition catalogue, Head of a Girl and in some contexts has been known as "Head of a Girl in Profile". But we think that no. 39 " The Girl with Closed Eyes" is a better match. The Goupil link below takes you to more information about the show and gives a full list of titles from the catalogue.
