We wonder if there is any connection to 'Study for Decoration', the aka for Mother and Daughter (1929). We are assuming that 'Mother and Daughter' is not the work in the London Group Show because it would be hard to describe the daughter depicted as a "little girl".

Richard did mention another work that may have been in same London Group show, Boy in an Indian Head-dress.
