inches, full margins. One of only several known lifetime impressions (there
was no posthumous edition). Signed in pencil, lower right. A brilliant, richly-inked
impression of this exceedingly scarce etching, printed in two tones, with a light brown
film of ink in the sky, and black inking throughout the plate, selectively-wiped on the
side of the Château and along the hillside to create highlights.
