Note du spécialiste

Hamilton's Reaper series was exhibited at Gimpel Fils, London in 1950 and for the show the artist marked presumptive edition numbers on his proofs for the benefit of possible clients.

However, as Etienne Lullin points out, the envisaged edition of twenty impressions was probably never completed, and it is likely that only about ten impressions of each of the Reapers were ever printed.
