Lot Essay

Comparable preliminary studies for this series are in the British Museum, London (B. 8, 15 and 18, Beck, op.cit., 1991, nos. 1233 A1, 1239 A7 and 1240 A8) and in the Hamburger Kunsthalle (B. 12 and 14, Beck, op.cit., 1991, nos. 1236 A4 and 1238 A6). Some of these are in reverse, some in the same sense as the print done after it.
