The print is 36 inches by 36 inches and is framed to 42.75 inches by 42.75 inches. The series was done in the following editions: 100 portfolios, 25 A.P., 25 Roman numerals, 5 P.P., and 5 H.C. All prints are signed and numbered by Andy Warhol and bear the copyright of the artist and publisher, Martha Graham Center of Contemporary Dance, Inc., New York, City; and the chop mark of the printer, Rupert Jasen Smith, New York City. This print is number 56 of 100. It was originally presented to Martha Booth Stanley, granddaughter of George G.
