'Morgan le Fay'
Linocut printed in colours
Trimmed close to the image border on all sides, removing the lower margin inscribed and signed in pencil (leaving only the uppermost tips of the taller letters in these inscriptions)
26.8 x 18cm (image borderline), the sheet slightly larger
Estimate $700 - $1,000
The sheet has been trimmed as described in the catalogue. It is quite browned and a dried liquid 'tide mark' extending irregularly across the lower part of the sheet, most apparent verso, is visible to a lesser degree to the recto (as visible in the catalogue photos). There is a small skinned spot with loss of printed colour at the left side of the lower edge (as also visible in the catalogue photos).
