Lot Essay

Of the seven impressions of this subject recorded by Roethel, six are now in museums. Five impressions are in the Gabrielle Münter Stiftung and the former Benjamin impression is now in the Brooklyn Museum. In addition to the impressions known to Roethel, two additional impressions were offered at Christie's on November 1, 1988 and November 3, 1997.
All the impressions recorded in Roethel appear to be printed in different color combinations. None of the recorded impressions are signed.
