- Curator's comments
- According to Mattia Jona, the inscription is by Luigi Conconi and demonstrates that the impressions were pulled by him. Inscriptions with the same type of red chalk, which tends to disappear, leaving a dry imprint on the paper, are found on Conconi's own etchings. He states that this is probably the first evidence of a contact between the two artists as printmakers.
