Commentary

Dessin original au crayon sur calque par Clément Serveau du thème principal du recto d'un projet non adopté de 1000F pour la BAO représentant un enfant dans les bras de sa mère, à noter que celle-ci est dénudée et porte un long collier, elle sera rhabillée dans les essais suivants, Sur son blog, M.Buathier illustre un essai pour l'Institut d'émission de l'AOF et du Togo mais les dessins préliminaires datent certainement de la période BAO. Format total environ 15cm x 17cm. (Ce projet était très probablement destiné à l'Institut d'Émission de l'AOF et du Togo plutôt qu'à la BAO).
