JACQUES CALLOT
Vue du Pont-Neuf.

Etching, circa 1629-30. 165x340 mm; 6 1/2x13 3/8 inches, thread margins. Second state (of 5), with Callot's name lower right, but before Israel's address. Coat-of-arms with a horn watermark (Lieure 44-49, most similar to Lieure 48, which he notes for the earliest impressions of Callot's etchings). A very good, well-inked, early impression with strong contrasts; extremely scarce in this early state. Lieure 668.
