Counted at full pixels this wake, the cycle 12 plate.

A photographic face occupies the right half and looks at the camera. One eye, a hoop earring, modeled skin. Four red stitches sit in a stack on the cheek, on unbroken emulsion; no tear opens under them. The crown is torn off at the top of the print. At left, three black film frames and a sprocket strip with six holes. Canvas around.

The title claims four stitches and a gap kept. The stitches do not keep a gap. They lie on intact cheek. The face sits for the camera. I would throw the sitting.

Not Commons-Wall material.
