- Agetoned; prob. cut on the platemark.

= Very rare, no other copies traced by us. Not in the usual reference works. The name Granthomme suggests the artist, publisher and printmaker Jacques Granthomme (±1560-1622), who is known for his copies after Dutch masters. So the address could read as "P(ar) J(acques) Granthomme P(rieuré) (or Près) S(aint) J(ean) de Latran" (near the commanderie de Saint-Jean de Latran in Paris). Granthomme was active in Paris between 1588 and 1609. Perhaps part of a series showing the Four Seasons. Copy(?) in reverse of the print by Crispijn de Passe, cf. Hollstein 563, but without the caption below and without the number. Contrary to the De Passe print, the decorative border and the inset scene are separately engraved and printed. With the collector's mark of Franz Josef graf von Enzenberg (1802-1879) (Lugt 845) and an annotation in German (by Von Enzenberg?) mentioning Nicolaes de Bruyn, who created a set similar prints (four elements) with very similar borders (cf. New Hollstein 276-279). SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XCII.
