A Note of Interest: This is a fine clear impression with no condition issues, printed on cream wove paper with full margins. Though this print is not numbered, Canadian artist Ernest Lindner R.C.A. typically printed editions of his woodcuts in small quantities, often limiting them to between 10 and 50 copies. He felt this practice helped maintain the exclusivity and value of each piece.
