Beschreibung
A very fine impression of New Hollstein's only state, with strong burr in places and inky plate edges. Small margins. Listed in Nowell-Usticke as "RRR" for "extremely rare" with the comment "a very rare plate, possibly a self-portrait". Features a delicate signature and the date in the top left corner within the plate’s edge. – Slightly time-stained, a few scattered stains. Minor hinging defects, and remnants of a former mount on the reverse, otherwise in very good condition.
