PRINTING

Three impressions have been located (Graphic with a link to impression #K4230103, Graphic with a link to impression #K4230102, Graphic with a link to impression #K4230104). They are in black ink on ivory laid paper. Whistler appears to have been having trouble in printing the plate - one, on Asian laid paper, appears to have slipped in the printing (Graphic with a link to impression #K4230103). Similar problems in printing occurred in a related plate, Café Corazza, Paris [484].
