Description
Excellent, even and fine-lined impressions, sheet 1 in a very rare early impression, before the addresses of Orlandi and van Aelst. Each trimmed close to the platemark. - Paper slightly stained and minimally darkened. Sheet 1 with a backed loss and a paper thinning in the lower margin on the verso, as well as a mounting strip on the verso, otherwise in good condition for its age. Rare, Bohlin only knows a total of four Engravings by the artist!
