This was one of several versions of the butterfly with a tricolour flag, drawn for publication in Whistler 1899 (F)[more]. It was not published in this form, but, with the addition of a tail, as in Butterfly and tricolour flag [M.1560].
The verso shows two butterflies with long tails that have been crossed out and were not used.
r.: Butterfly; v.: Butterflies [M.1552] and r.: Butterfly and tricolour flag; v.: Two butterflies and part of a third [M.1556] are halves of the same sheet of paper, with half of one one crossed out butterfly on each.
