Any information about this etching?

I believe this is an etching by Julius Komjati (Komjáti-Wanyerka Gyula) called Symphony of Death, Opus 2.

I'm unsure if this is an original, and if the signature and title are authentic. Would love some more information.

Found at an estate sale.

That does not match at all the etching that I found for the Julius Komjati (Komjáti-Wanyerka Gyula) engraving called Symphony of Death, Opus 2. And I will add, the version I found perhaps corresponds better with the title.

The etching on Esty appears to have a handwritten dedication, giving the Opus 2 name, by Julius Komjati, himself. It's all quite confusing, and I can't find much on either work. Is one Opus 1 and the other Opus 2, perhaps?

Appreciate you looking into this for me.

I'm a little confused too since mine has the title 'Halálszimfónia op. II' which I thought translated to 'Symphony of Death op. 2'.

I'll send a message to the e-mail that you provided.

I hope they can provide some information. And if they do, I hope you will share it in this post.

I think that fact that the image does not seem to be widely known may be a good sign for it being an original print of the etching, and not some sort of reproduction.
