Curatorial Remarks:
The color of the hand additions, plate size, and paper type could not be documented because this work is not in MoMA's Collection and could not be examined in person.

A fragment of this plate is found in the left edge of “Plant Study,” a drawing seen in Related Works in Other Mediums. The fragment is from the upper right area of the plate when viewed from the orientation of "Je Rentre dans la Forêt (#2)." The fragment shows some black aquatint markings and the plate mark is also visible.
