SignedSigned in same medium as print, cursive, lower center: "Chaim Gross" with a small icon below the last letters, usual in Gross's signature. The letters "aim" in the first name of the signature are faint in comparison with the beginning letter and the last name. The style of the signature does not have the boldness of that found on Gross' work in later years, as found on his print 2008.3.8.
MarkingsPreprinted gold and black label previously on the back of the framing (removed for preservation): "Custom Framing/Arlene's Artist Material/869 Madison Ave./Albany, NY."
