SOLD: B, F It was quite a coincidence to come upon these the other day--a handful of pencil drawings loose in a notebook dated 1902 and owned by Carlotta Huse, a series of whose larger drawings on ledger people were featured in a recent collaboration between Critical Eye and Ricco/Maresca Gallery-- and a number of which are still available in the shop.

Drawings measure approx 8 1/4" x 7 1/8"  and are in overall good condition with some unevenness around the edges. Sold individually, price is per drawing; p
