As only 34 numbered editions were produced, they are extremely sought after and difficult to find. Making this rendition even more special, it is an artist's proof; numbered "AC/34," it rests on a solid marble base (distinct from the wood and marble bases found on regular versions). It is accompanied by a rarely seen certificate of authenticity complete with the artist's signature and fingerprint.
