There were 88 dead and 68 wounded. The plaque on the back describes the event. The artists name can be seen on the back as well. Aime Edmond Dallemagne (1882 - 1971) is a listed French artist. The etching is mounted under glass with a brown paper binding. The binding is heavily worn throughout. There is visible mildew throughout.
