The imagery depicts the title page as the 'New Edition.' The text has been cancelled by blue paint and delicate, small, scattered white markings. The poem reads "I sing a book of the art that was - now read on - of mind art - though I have to hide to reveal." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

This print is from the first version of the work which was mostly destroyed in a fire at Editions Alecto. Less than three copies of the prints from the first version survived. Some images of the prints were recycled in the second version of the book but this was not one of them. This print depicts blurred, Italian text in large, colored stencilled letters on a grey and brown background. In the left lower corner, Phillips has inserted a Humument fragment which reads, "yawning before him like a gulf in the depths of a dream the entrance to hell - memory as mourning merely - To the insensible." A handwritten selection in Italian from the Dante canto for which the print is illustrative has been placed in the upper center half of the print. Finally, Phillips has written 'NO' in the center of the print perhaps because he was dissatisfied that the handwritten text had not been properly centered. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

This print is one of the proofs for the first edition of Phillips' Dante's Inferno. The completed prints were destroyed in a fire at the Editions Alecto studio and never published as an edition. Phillips subsequently redid the prints in a different manner although he borrowed some of the imagery from the first edition. The prints in a limited edition and a trade edition book were published by Phillips and Thames and Hudson, respectively. This work was shown at the Sackner Archive during Art Basel Miami December 2001. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
