The Folkwang Museum Essen copy described by Utermann as a colour woodcut in brown, printed on "smooth, light paper" and mounted on support. It is signed both on the print and also on the mounting board, just like our copy. Strictly speaking, however, this is not a "colour woodcut", but a monochrome woodcut printed in colour, which - as is almost always the case with Rohlfs - has the character of a monotype.
