The high cheekbones and dimpled chin of the young man in this portrait suggest that the sitter is Charles Vincent, a friend of the artist and subject of other paintings, such as Portrait of an acrobat c. 1931, (see exhibition catalogue for Pavel Tchelitchew; A selection of Paintings, Gouaches and Drawings, arranged by Richard Nathanson, London, The Alpine Club, 1972, no.30, illustrated).
