three etchings with scraper on Ingres laid paper
Each Image: 2¾ x 2 5/8 in. (7 x 6.7 cm.)
Largest Sheet: 3¾ x 4¾ in. (9.5 x 12.1 cm.)
(3)Executed in 1913-1914. The first state is one of four proofs. The third state is one of three proofs (presumably the only one in Baer noted as being annotated 'I').
