Ana Vázquez de Parga has confirmed the authenticity of this painting.
Painted in 1956 during the height of Óscar Domínguez's love affair with the vicomtesse Marie-Laure de Noailles, the walled garden of the foreground of Composition compartimentée may reference the gardens at her Villa Noailles in Hyères, for which Domínguez executed several sculptures. The vicomtesse and her husband were some of the greatest mid-20th century patrons of modern and Surreal art, including painters and sculptors such as Henri Laurens and Salvador Dalí, the filmmaker Luis Buñuel and the designer Jean Michel Frank. Such was the strength of Domínguez relationship to Noailles that after his 1958 suicide, of which the knife at the centre of the composition is a jarring omen, Domínguez was interred in Noailles family mausoleum in Montparnasse.
