Work needed edit

The article is pretty stubby. Clearly this is an important work because it prefigures Guernica but it also seems to be underresearched and I don't want to get on writing OR. Anyway, here is some stuff that needs doing:

  • 14 or 18 etchings? How do we know which is right?
  • What happened to them? Were they ever sold as postcards?

I have now seen these works at the British Museum. There are two sheets each with 9 postcard sized images in a 3 x 3 grid. There are 18 images in total. I don't know where the National Gallery of Victoria got its number of 14. Perhaps only 14 were made into postcards? I still don't want to get into writing original research though. I'll have a look for some better references. --DanielRigal (talk) 16:36, 30 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Ah. I think I get it now. From this [1] it is clear that the last 4 images are a latter addition. --DanielRigal (talk) 16:51, 30 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Mirror image edit

The image of "Dream and Lie of Franco" looks like a mirror image (examine the handwritten date at the top of the image). 2602:306:CE40:9720:2CF4:E820:9078:4420 (talk) 05:30, 30 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
