Notes |
Annotations on wrapper: 'These and the other portraits with same signature from J. J. Boissard's 'Icones Virorum Illustrium', Frankfort (de Bry) 1597-99 are generally attributed to Robert Boissard. An older attribution connects with the de Bry and it might conceivably be a workshop signature. The plates more certainly attributed to Theodore and J. T. de Bry in the 'Icones' are not signed.' 'See Janku [Rep. f. Kunstwissenschaft XIV p.416 et seq] whose attributions to engravers of the portraits in 'Icones Virorum Illustrium' are noted on the slips in the portrait index'; these attributions have been annotated at the back of the prints. In the present case, both De Bry and Boissard's names were inscribed on verso. |

Licensing edit
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
