watercolor on paper, 20.5 x 34.5 cm, signed, numbered and titled bottom left, in pencil, "7/15 Before the storm / e. Jakić and M. C. Crnčić 1919./20."; dated bottom right, in pencil, "1919./19(20)."

This is a reprint from the original copperplate from the re-edition of a part of the painter's graphic oeuvre (28 copperplates), executed by the graphic artist Darko Jakić during 1997 and 1998 at the Academy of Fine Arts press in Jabukovac, Zagreb. This – like the other 27 original copper plates from the mentioned edition – originates from the painter's legacy kept by his successors, namely the Crnčić – Koščec family. After the printing was completed, the reprinted edition of the copperplate sheets was fully presented to the public with accompanying catalogs at exhibitions in Zagreb and Bosnia and Herzegovina during 2001 and 2002.
