etching, circa 1660, on laid paper, without watermark, a fine impression of Godefroy's third state (six), printing very clearly and strongly, with much inky relief, trimmed inside the platemark but retaining a fillet of blank paper outside the borderline on all sides
Sheet 152 x 131 mm.

Dr Walter Beck (b. 1895-after 1956), Berlin (Lugt 2903b); presumably sold with C. G. Boerner, Düsseldorf, in 1955.
Dr Karl Herweg (1914-2002), Recklinghausen (Lugt 3974); Sotheby's, London, 4 December 2003, lot 69.

專家說明

This print has previously - but it seems erroneously - been catalogued as a second state-impression. The only different between the equally rare second and third states, according to Godefroy, is an added outline to the right of the jug held by the man seated on the bench. Comparisons with impressions of the second state (Metropolitan Museum, New York) and of the third state (Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam) show that the present impression is of the third state, with the additional drypoint line added.
