The small version of SALLY is based on the preparatory drawing made specifically for transformation into a print. Both the preparatory drawing and an impression of the third state are inscribed ‘Harrington Square’, where Sickert lived for a year after his second marriage in 1911. The third state impression identifies the model as Marie Hayes, a friend from Sickert’s childhood whom he employed for a period from 1911.
