Production notes
The black and ochre are printed on the face of the print, the grey-green on the verso of the semi-transparent Japanese paper. The artist comments: Because of the transparency of the Japanese paper, the artist recomends backing the print with cream or white paper. [Imprint, no.4, 1975, p.11]
