'The Labyrinth'
Linocut
24 x 20.5 (matrix), 28.5 x 23cm (sheet)
Estimate $800 - $1,200
Dating to 1932 and ostensibly printed in an edition of fifty (according to the numbering of the impression in the National Gallery of Victoria), impressions of this work are extremely rare. Only one other impression has been traced (that in the NGV) and it appears none have been offered at auction.
The absence of any pencil inscriptions on this impression suggests it was a proof outside the edition (if the edition was printed at all) and retained by the artist.
