This print is from the first version of the work which was mostly destroyed in a fire at Editions Alecto. Less than three copies of the prints from the first version survived. Some images of the prints were recycled in the second version of the book but this was not one of them. This print depicts blurred, Italian text in large, colored stencilled letters on a grey and brown background. In the left lower corner, Phillips has inserted a Humument fragment which reads, "yawning before him like a gulf in the depths of a dream the entrance to hell - memory as mourning merely - To the insensible." A handwritten selection in Italian from the Dante canto for which the print is illustrative has been placed in the upper center half of the print. Finally, Phillips has written 'NO' in the center of the print perhaps because he was dissatisfied that the handwritten text had not been properly centered. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
