| Notes |
The subject engraved in reverse by Pieter Schenck (print entitled "pictor inops") and with modifications by Georg Walch (Nuremberg, worked c.1630-55) (See 1876,0510.573). In France prints were made by Jean Le Paultre, Nicolas Viennot, Pierre Landry (for an impression see 1996,0713.18) and, with further modifications and in reverse, by Abraham Bosse. A related painting by the artist is known (sold Sotheby's, London, 20/iv/1994 lot 18, repr.). For a use on Doccia porcelain, see the plate in the BM, 2010,8004.1. A related drawing of the same format, a pair to that in the BM, showing a 'Happy Painter', was acquired in 2001 (2001,0929.1). Literature: E. de Jongh & G.

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.  | ||||
