- Curatorial Remarks:
- Two merchandise items were made with images of this print: a T-shirt and a tote bag.
This impression has been mounted to a backing board with cross stitches in each corner, and framed. Due to the nature of the mounting and framing of this work, the verso could not be examined. - MoMA Credit Line:
