Description

Drawing in felt-tip pen on paper. Signed in the bottom left of the page. As explained by the text accompanying below, the nice scene of this kind - which depicts a line of women who mow the soldiers - is actually a sketch for the film "La peau" by Liliana Cavani (released in 1981), a film adaptation of the autobiographical novel by Curzio Malaparte, of which Orfeo Tamburi was a friend.
