THE STONE COLLECTOR as a grown up man is dressed as a classical outdoors man, in tweeds with many pockets, a leather bag slung over the shoulder.

THE STONE COLLECTOR crouches by the lithograph fragments. he takes a fragment between his thumb and forefinger, rises to his feet. from his pocket he fetches the ‘little man’s hammer’ and knocks on the fragment. he puts away the hammer and fetches a measuring tool he uses to measure the fragment before putting into his bag.
