Etching and drypoint on laid paper. (1630). 10.8 x 9.3 cm (sheet).

An extremely fine, dark lifetime impression of the second state, with the framing line around the image and the accidental scratch over the ear, yet before the right edge of the plate was reduced. Narrow to thread margins. – A faint printers crease at the lower edge of the left. A very faint, flattened diagonal crease mark. The blue collector's stamp verso slightly visible on recto. Otherwise in good condition. Very rare!
