Second state after being cut down from a larger plate. The latter was a view of Fiesole ('Fiesole I', 1914, 315 x 237mm, PR2928) which was then cut down into two separate plates, the right hand side ('Fiesole III', 1915, 243 x 130 mm, PR1610) and the left hand side (this print, Fiesole II, 1915, 256 x 105mm,). An original drawing (1914) entitled 'Fiesole from the Giardini Publici' was published by A. & C. Black for the sketchbook, 'Florence', May 1914, as the final plate, number 24. Jo Hounsome records the drawing as 'for etching'
