Two-sided pencil on paper, signed 'Bellmer' lower left, variously inscribed at bottom.
9 x 12 in. (sight), 15 3/4 x 19 in. (frame).
Note: The title of this drawing comes from the Surrealist term 'exquisite corpse', a collaborative drawing method employed often by André Breton. Here, the sheet of paper was drawn on by four people in turn, each folding the sheet when they finished to conceal their work from the next person. The other artists' signatures have not been identified.
