Dominika Witke-Jeżewskiego ciekawiły rzadkie wydawnictwa, piękne papiery, zbierał odbitki o cechach "belle epreuve" wyróżniające się perfekcją warsztatu i estetyką wykonania, do kolekcji chętnie wybierał egzemplarze odbite na pergaminie. Odbitka ta jest szczególnie cenna. Pod kompozycją podpisali się obaj artyści - autor obrazu Edward Burne-Jones i rytownik Feliks Jasiński. Sygnatura malarza pod graficzną reprodukcją jego dzieła świadczy o wielkim uznaniu, jakie miał malarz dla mistrzostwa autora ryciny. Egzemplarze rycin Jasińskiego pojawiały się w handlu jeszcze w roku 1913, sprzedawane w warszawskim Antykwariacie Polskim Hieronima Wildera. Odbitki na pergaminie Wilder wyceniał aż na 125 rubli. Tę kosztowną i jak wydaje się, już wówczas rzadką, odbitkę na pergaminie kolekcjoner mógł nabyć w Antykwariacie Polskim. Więcej informacji nr inw.Gr.Pol.5692. Ewa Milicer
