DescriptionThis is the trial proof of War's End State II, reworking the original plate to create more depth and modeling of the earlier work, State I in 1947. A grandmother consoles her granddaughter in an embrace. "A grandmother and child left to face the future, the generation between them lost." Phillip Kloss, excerpt from Gene Kloss Etchings, Stunstone Press.
