- Curator's comments
- The print itself has been annotated with the date 1944 by the artist, however the catalogue gives the date of the edition's publication as 1947.
The backing sheet which the print has been mounted appears to be an aborted drawing of a female nude in an interior, with a still-life of fruit.
