General Notes

Note

Cataloging note: The editors have examined an impression, signed and dated 49 in graphite in Méndez’s hand and with embossing of the composition visible on the verso, but with dimensions, 29.6 x 41.5 cm., that are notably smaller than other examined impressions and the original linoleum block. The method by which this impression was produced is not known. -- Retrieved from Leopoldo Mendez Catalogue [AR 10/14/2025] The dimensions above match the image dimensions of this piece, which is 1cm less in H and 0.3mm less in width than original.
