Curatorial Remarks:
Due to the nature of the mounting and framing of this work, the verso could not be examined. In this case, the impression number was provided by the Louise Bourgeois Studio.

The sources of this print are details in the series of drawings, "The Family I" 2007. The male's head is from #4 in the series, and the rest of the composition is from #11.
