Usticke's second state (e) (of 2), with the fine vertical lines under the dog's chest distinct, with some traces of burr on the rays between Christ and the bearded man and before the wear in the dark shadow under the table. Ex-collection Richard Robinow (?), indiscernible ink stamp verso (see Lugt 2237). A superb, dark and richly-inked impression of this very scarce etching, with inky plate edges.
