The current print benefits from the edition number on the reverse of the mount, ‘4/50’—while it is well documented that these editions of fifty were never fully realized, these inscriptions aid scholars in dating prints to the desirable time period of the early 1930s.

After eight months we are closer together than ever. Perhaps C. will be remembered as the great love of my life. Already I have achieved certain heights reached with no other love.
