Scope and Contents

The print depicts ornamental colored markings surounding a black and white photographic portrait of a child in the center. The poem reads "face to face with this moment - a sudden child - Irma already - art by way of Vienna - to Vienna where the orient would reach art - came like a cloud - let me accept its reflections." According to a communication from Phillips, this artist proof is the only print of the edition to have added gold leaf additions; the other prints in the edition have gold ink. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
