- Plate 1 to a series of (at least) six etchings representing classical buildings; not described in IFF.
Each plate bears a inscription in scrached lettering, in the bottom left margin: 'Stagnon [hardly legible]'. We have not been able to determine the role of this 'Stagnon' in the execution of the set.
