[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 4420005, member: 56"]If this is all one sheet, then the white surrounding the central image is borders. If you want a more definitive answer, I think you will need to take it to someone who can assess it hands-on. At least they should be able to tell you if it is an original drawing or a reproduction. I don't know why color would come off, but you can't get around that Oestreicher did art [U]reproductions[/U]. I suppose it could still be a copy, but if so, it should say so and not include Maillol's signature. It is possible the artist did more than one drawing of the same subject. Given the differences between your image and that on Wikipedia, and assuming them both to have originated with Maillol, it would have to be true. Ultimately, there's only so much that can be told from online pictures.[/QUOTE]
