Three Oriental Figures (Jacob and Laban ?).

Etching and drypoint, 1641. 145x115 mm; 5 3/4x4 1/2 inches. Biörklund's second state (of 2); Usticke's second state (e) (of 2); White and Boon's second state (of 2). A superb, richly-inked impression with strong contrasts and no sign of wear, with the dense cross-hatching distinct and with the diagonal scratch below the "1" in the date upper right clear, consistent with the earlier, pre-Basan impressions of this subject. Bartsch 118; Biörklund 41-F; Hollstein (White and Boon) 118.
