Original drawings and autograph handwritten notes
Circa 1858-1859, 2 pages in-8 in ink and pencil.
On the front, ten heads and busts of men and women in ink. At the top of the page, a few notes on the status of bailiffs, or how artistic taste takes precedence over the lecture notes of law student Paul
Cézanne, barely twenty years old and enrolled at the faculty of Aix-en-Provence.
On the back, an original pencil drawing showing a woman sitting in front of a man in a top hat.
This page, bearing the pencil inscription "54", corresponds to the old foliotage of a fragmentary youth drawing book acquired by the Louvre Museum in 1953.
