MR: Tate GAllery Colour and matrix change, however slightly, throughout the proofs and edition of this print. Yellow rather than orange finds its place in 4/20 (Tate Gallery) Additional 'cross' appears in 9/20 and a dark blue instead of purple printing is used for the two 'mitre' shapes. The top stretch of sky explores tonal layers of printing in blue and grey-brown.
'Although devoid of obvious subject the image is suggestive of an animal or bird. The rectangular shape on the right which might be a head contains an 'H' shape which appears in Rothenstein's subsequent emblematic works... The circle, perhaps as an eye, The shape enclosed by the 'H' reminded the artist of a bishop's mitre'
Rothenstein printed most of the editions himself on his giant Columbian press. Colours often varied.
