Artwork Title: Contemporary Pencil Sketches of Paganini's Head

Contemporary Pencil Sketches of Paganini's Head, 1830

Unknown

Two working sketches of Paganini's head, apparently drawn from life, together with a pianist (possibly Sivori) and a violinist (possibly Belloni), executed in lead pencil on paper (21 x 15.5cm), French school, probably 1830s. These sketches of Paganini's head give the very appearance of having been done from life, possibly as the great violinist was performing.
