Matham'i address was substituted for that of A. de Wies; rare 1---1040--Daniel Hkinsius (58) first state, with Van den Enden's address Jacob Gouter, Musician to Charles 1 (59) first state, before Meyssens' address; with fine margin, rare 2--vt--1041--EOBEET SOUTH, aet. 112 (CI. 70) first state, the pure dry faint work, with burr; presque unique 1 M----% This curious and interesting portrait has been very differently judged by two of the greatest connoisseurs of our age.
