All About Onya La Tour by David Burliuk 1939
As can be observed by comparing this artwork to photographs of La Tour, this picture is among the most accurate representations of her likeness.
After “by-” and before “Burliuk,” this portrait bears a signature in brown ink that has deteriorated to the point of near-invisibility. The title and year appear to have been added by La Tour later in black ink.
