About the Item

Visscher), 1674. Artists and Engravers: Made by an anonymous engraver after 'Nicolaes Visscher'.

Visscher died in Amsterdam in 1679 and was buried in the Nieuwezijds Kapel on 11 September of that year, though a death year of 1709 is maintained by some sources. Condition: Good, given age. Some minor crinkles and creases. A few tiny spots mainly outside the image. General age-related toning and/or occasional minor defects from handling. Please study scan carefully. Date: 1674.
