Highly represented in major collections, including the National Gallery of Scotland, City of Edinburgh Art collection, National Gallery of Canada and others.
CONDITION: This print is in excellent condition, although the mat has yellowed. It is in a early 1930s frame (which I discovered when I took the back off to check the print and found a 1930s newspaper behind the print). The frame shows some wear and weakening at the corners. The paper backing (on the frame) is torn and darkened with age. There is a faint handwritten inscription on the back that is a belated wish to Kit and somebody from Dave. A nice early print.
