Budapest, self-published (samizdat), 1971.

In-folio, 16 pages, semi-rigid cover, staple binding, a double-sheet cutout (in the middle of the book); black and white offset printing.

Edition of 50 copies, signed and numbered by the artist.

Our copy is numbered 41 and signed in pencil on page 12, which serves as the Impressum, with the Hungarian inscription:

"50 számozott nyomat a művész aláírásával" (50 numbered prints signed by the artist).

All pages are gridded by Endre Tót. The grid lines are blue-gray, except for the first and last pages, which are gridded in black, as well as a double-page spread measuring 200 x 100 mm, folded in two at the center of the book, forming two squares, held in place by the top staple.

Fragment of a Poem by Kisfaludy Sándor

On the top right of the first page, behind a tracing paper sheet, a fragment of a poem by Kisfaludy Sándor, titled Kesergő szerelem (A Bitter Love?), is reproduced.


SÜMEG

In the center of the page, there is a small black-and-white photograph (35 x 35 mm) depicting a house next to a shop, in front of which two people are posing. The roof is marked with a cross (X) by the artist, and below it, the inscription "itt/here" appears.


SÜMEG SEMMI SEM SEMMI

Below the photograph, a biography of the artist is presented first in Hungarian, then in English. On the word "született" (born) and on the word "born", the same cross is drawn. Endre Tót confirmed this is the house where he grew up in Sümeg. The two people are likely his parents.


On the last page, there is a photograph—a fragment of which is also visible on the first page—showing two hands manipulating an architectural tool. These are the artist’s hands, gridding the pages. (Confirmed by Endre Tót during our visit on September 25, 2023.)
