This bust study can be related to a drawing illustrating Judith (cf. Virginie Frelin et Elisabeth Coulon, Jules Machard, le culte de la ligne, catalogue d’exposition, 4 avril au 15 juin 2003, Musée des Beaux-Arts de Dole, fig. 5, p. 23). We do not know any pictorial work by the artist on this theme.
