The German edition of The Divine Comedy was published by Les Heures Claires and was limited to 1000 sets. Out of the 1000 sets only 386 or so were completed. Each print was matted in a paper sleeve. The prints bear watermarks, (two of every four) and the only difference between these woodcuts and the regular French edition is the addition of a block signature. Each print, with the exception of Enferno 1 and Purgatory 9, which already bear a plate signature have an added block signature in the image area. It is not clear whether this edition is in addition to or part of the 5346 mentioned above. I have seen many of the higher tirage number French sets with varying numbers of Block signed prints. I have seen some sets with all of the prints bearing a block signature (with the exceptions noted above), I have also seen French sets with as few as five or six block signed prints in place of the unsigned prints. Most of the French sets issued, were issued unsigned or without the additional block signature.
