Colour aquatint and etching on BFK Rives wove paper. 31,2 × 23,3 cm (56 × 38,1 cm) (12 ¼ × 9 ⅛ in. (22 × 15 in.)). Signed. Catalogue raisonné: Maeght 1202. One of 300 numbered copies. Paris, Galerie Maeght, 1956. Executed after the painting "La pendola" of 1948. Framed

Condition Report: No. 287/300. Harmonious overall appearance. The colours fresh and strong. The sheet edges in places with small handling creases. At the upper edge in the centre a closed tear (0,5 cm) and at the lower edge in the centre one minuscule loss (0,1 x 0,2 cm). The paper with uneven pale time staining and isolated with pale pinpoint foxing. The paper surface around the plate mark with slight scuff marks, and mainly at the lower edge slightly soiled. In the motif, towards the upper and the lower plate mark edge left of centre each a minuscule, hardly noticible nail hole. In the upper corners, remnants of transparent liquid glue of an old mount.
