One of four original lithographs Lebrun did in 1963 to include in the portfolio/book "Drawings for Dante's Inferno." The book itself was designed by Leonard Baskin, the text set in Monotype Bembo at the Stinehour Press and printed at the Meridian Gravure Company. The four lithographs, signed in the plate, were printed in an edition of 2000 plus 150 pencil signed and numbered. They were printed with Joe Funk at Kanthos Press, Los Angeles, who also published the work.
