Label: From accompanying sheet:Trio, is a lovely etching in his finest vein, a classic symbolism which draws the spectator to examine its inner meanings.For each, the three women beautifully drawn, will represent an entirely personal experience, but the fine textures in the draped background, the expert grouping and lighting of the trio and the mood of the entire piece, makes this splendid print a most desireable work of art and a welcome additionto our list.
