In plate, lower right of image: EGC; in pencil, lower right: 1907 / EGC / \unidentified device!
In ink, upper right corner of face mat: 3; in pencil by the artist below sheet on back mat: The movements are not progressions of the same movement - although / they resemble each other - / Thus we should find that this state would be reached / by a quite different commencement to No. 2 / and perhaps at a different tempo - / The advance at first it seems to me would be very / rapid - & at the end infinitely slow / If we think of music here we are reminded / of the slowest of marches. / EGC.
