Production notes

This work appears to be the only English linocut not printed on Hylton Bank paper. Fold marks run vertically on sheet from upper centre to lower centre. Characteristic of works produced in Europe that Williams sent home in letters to friends in Australia. Blue-green stains on sheet result of water damage incurred while stored in Harry Rosengrave's shed.
