Violin and bust
Painter: Gertler, Mark
History note: London, Leicester Galleries, 1934, exh. 'Paintings and pastels by Mark Gertler' (85), bt. Thomas Balston
Bequeathed by Thomas Balston through the National Art-Collections Fund, 1968
Height: 36.8 cm
Width: 46.3 cm
Method of acquisition: Bequeathed (1968) by Balston, Thomas
Production date: not after AD 1934 : The Leicester Galleries state that most of the paintings in their exhibition of 1934 'would have come straight from' the artist. It thus seems probable that this year, or slightly berore it, is the likely date for painting (Goodison & Sutton, 1977).
