18th Century

Note

Proof for Moreau's illustration, etched lines only. Hubert's name is not included in the completed plate; his name appears in scratched lettering on the etched state, so it is likely he - not Dambrun - is responsible for the preliminary etching. On the next illustration, names of two printmakers appear on the completed plate - Pauquet, the etcher and Delvaux, engraver.
