- Note
- According to the Tate: "On acquisition the work was known as 'Cornered.' However, one other drawing of the same year bears the same title (repr. Dabrowski 1988, p. 134 in col.). Thus, there is some doubt as to the authenticity of this title. Musa Mayer suggests that the title should probably be known as 'Untitled.' She states, 'It is unlikely that my father would have given the name to both works.' It was generally Guston's practice to inscribe the title on the back of the picture. However, the paper is glued to a board and it is not possible to verify this. Since there is no conclusive proof either way, the title by which the painting was known when presented to the Tate Gallery has been retained."
