- Curator's comments
- The third state of this print is distinguished in part from the previous ones by spots on the plate created by scratching and rubbing out using a burnisher and sand-paper, creating an effect of a pool of water in the lower margin. The sixth state of this print was published in "L'Artiste" on 1st January 1870.
