With a provenance stamp on the verso, along with manuscript pencil and ink annotations.
Based on Octave Mirbeau's 1900 novel, which follows a chambermaid in 1930s France whose Parisian beauty and sophistication at turns alienate and arouse the bourgeoisie members of the country house where she has recently found employment.
