- Appears to derive from a portrait by Deveria in 1829 (see impression 1893,0516.368).
Possibly the print registered at Bibliographie de la France on 2 November 1833, no. 655 (published by Benard); or on 24 October 1829, no. 711 (printed by Senefelder, published by Benard). The IFF also records a portrait of Victor Hugo by Julien published by Benard c.1830 (IFF17), and another in 1832 (IFF35, no publication detail given)
