Additional information from catalogue raisonné: Ink drawing in Zorn's possession. Charles Deering, Esq., of Chicago, is the owner of a collection of Zorn's etchings, which next to that of the artist himself, is the most complete collection existing, containing many unique etchings and states. A friend and admirer of Zorn's, he has executed under the latter's guidance, etchings which show, in motif and technique, evident traces of the master's influence.
