Information

Etching, partially coloured in pencil and red coloured chalk. 44,7 × 33,3 cm (49,5 × 37 cm) (17 ⅝ × 13 ⅛ in. (19 ½ × 14 ⅝ in.)). Signed. Catalogue raisonné: Black 18 (1st state). [3647]

Condition Report: Harmonious overall appearance. Good, intense print. The sheet edges without losses. At the upper right corner one short tear (1 cm). The upper right and the lower left sheet edge each lightly bumped with accompanying fine printer's creases. Isolated, in raking visible slight hairline scuff marks; in the right half of the sheet, three faint vertical creases (up to 21 cm). The paper with pale time staining as well as, overall, with brownish liquid stains, which are primarily visible on the front in the margin areas outside the motif, unobtrusive to the overall appearance. In the margins, in places traces of printing ink as well as faint scuff marks and fingerprints. On the reverse, along the upper edge remnants of various paper mountings. In the upper corners mounted with paper adhesive strips onto the support cardboard
