Notes Monvosin painted for the first time a picture of Ali Pasha & Vassiliki in 1832 and exposed it the next year at the Paris Salon; the oil was taken by him with some other 20 pictures when he left France for Chile; now that big picture (345 × 272 cm) is in the Palacio Cousiño, in Santiago. A pencil and watercolour drawing of the same composition in reverse, given to Raymond Auguste Quinsac Monvoisin, was sold at Gros & Delettrez 16 December 2008, lot 367. An oil of the same composition and almost the same dimensions (87 x 76 cm) as the present lot was sold also at Gros & Delettrez 16 June 2014, lot 20, as attributed to Monvoisin
