Lithograph printed onto hand-made laid paper, then hand-coloured in watercolour. Monogrammed and dated 1918 in the plate, and signed beneath in pencil 'Printed by Gerard Bragg' and 'Del. et Lith. "Rab"'.

Each illustration in the set differs in size and some have irregular edges with Rachel's trait of breaking through the edge with a detail of the design. Exhibited (1297) as one of the full set of six at the Walker Art Galley, Liverpool, Autumn Exhibition, 1919.
