Thank you, Pip, for the quick response! No, I haven't seen or heard of the existence of Ruttmann's hand-painted prints... Do you know where they are archived or where/how I might have a chance to see them?
Also, aside from the bleed, can you tell me how similar these digital versions are to the original?
