專家說明
Madame Jacqueline Matisse Monnier and the Association Marcel Duchamp will issue a certificate of authenticity to the buyer of this work, upon request.
The Nine Malic Moulds were conceived by Duchamp for the lower section of his iconic work of 1915-1923, La Mariée mise à nu par ses célibataires, même (The Large Glass). Occupying part of the mechanical world of the Bachelor's Domain, along with the Chocolate Grinder and the Glider Containing a Water Mill, the Cemetery of Uniforms and Liveries (as the moulds were originally known) consists of eight figures named after uniformed characters: priest, department store delivery boy, gendarme, cuirassier, policeman, undertaker, flunky and busboy; the ninth, the stationmaster, was added later.
