It is the size of one of your Reynolds & is probably the underlined text finest Nattier in the world end underlined text & in the most wonderful untouched state. The white of the dress is very soft & in beautiful tone & the note of pinkish red in the scarf thrown across the dress is really beautiful.

The price is £15.000. underlined here end underlined text & to you it will be $15.000. 75.000. ?? delivered. Please have Roland show
