- Curator's comments
- Appears to fit the description of De Vinck cat. No. 16320/16321 (both refering to the same plate, a portrait engraved by Polydor Pauquet, with different lettering), but it is not clear what the measurements given in that catalogue (200x158 for 16320 and 148x86 for 16321) refer to; plate-mark? image?
