It is signed lower right in graphite: "Johnny Friedlaender" and is marked "Epreuve d'artiste" (artist proof) at the lower left. The platemark measures 17 1/4" x 13 3/4" and is printed on a 22" x 17 1/4" sheet of heavy wove paper. In a four-ply mat to 24" x 20". Gotthard Joachim (Johnny) Friedlaender (1912-1992), German born, studied with Otto Muller. He later moved to France and gained citizenship.

Condition: Lightly toned at mat window, blank margins have a few spots of foxing, crease lower right blank margin. Generally good condition with all faults hidden by the mat.
