LOUISE NEVELSON Two Seated Women. Pen and ink on thin wove tracing paper, circa 1930. 213x293 mm; 8 3/8x11 5/8 inches. Signed in ink, lower right recto. Ex-collection Albert Argentieri, New Jersey, friend of the artist; thence by descent, private collection, New Jersey. During the 1950s and 1960s, Argentieri, a photographer and artist, lived near Louise Nevelson (1899-1988) and her assistant, Ted Haseltine, his dear friend. Albert photographed Louise, her artworks and sculptures; both Albert and Ted.
