Signed 'Whistler. —' above and to right of centre.
While Wedmore identified an impression in the Avery collection (now in the New York Public Library; Graphic with a link to impression #K0490121) as 'an early proof before the plate was cleaned,' Kennedy correctly noted that the marks were outside the platemark. The marks are offset printer's ink on the surface of the paper. 13
