Richard only records selling two paintings in 1931. One was titled 'Round the Point no 1' and corresponds with the size and provenance details of the work on this page, but he also lists the sale by the Goupil Gallery of another smaller work, titled Round the Point no 2. The whereabouts of this second work is unknown.
