DESCRIPTION:  Breeskin 133 fifth (final) state

A superb impression of the final state which was printed in an edition of 25. The drypoint effects in this impression are unusually rich; this must therefore clearly been one of the earliest pulls within the edition.

This is one of twelve drypoints (Breeskin 127-138) that were shown in Durand-Ruel’s Cassatt exhibition in 1893.
