Note du spécialiste

New Hollstein records only four impressions of the present first state in public collections: one at the British Museum, London; one at the Lugt Collection, Paris; and two at the Albertina, Vienna. There is also a counterproof of this state in Haarlem (Collection A. van der Steur).
