Reproduction no, 4/30/08 Print Review by Robert La France, Associate Curator of Pre-Modern Art at Krannert Art Museum: No comments specific to piece, style is correct and paper is accurate to the period of creation, which implies that it is authentic. Piece was trimmed to the platemark and glued to a backing. There is a G stamped in the upper righthand corner that may be a collector's mark.
