This excellent impression of "The Swan" was originally purchased from Arthur Ackermann & Son, Inc. in the 1920s. There is a repaired tear in the upper margin that does not extend into the plate and is not visible when matted.
The plate for "The Swan" was cancelled in 1920 and is archived in the Zorn Collections.
