Specialist note
The Comité André Masson has confirmed the authenticity of this work.
This work is likely a portrait of the noted philosopher, Paul-Louis Landsberg, a few years before his untimely death in April 1944. Landsberg studied under Heidegger and became a professor of philosophy at the University of Bonn. His wife, Madeleine, also contributed texts to André Masson, published in 1940 by Robert Desnos and Armand Salacrou.
