Excellente épreuve dans un tirage du milieu du XVIIIe siècle.

A propos de cette gravure, Mannocci relève:

This plate corresponds almost exactly in reverse to the drawing Harbour scene (Liber Veritatis 4, MRD 80, 1633-1634). It seems that, towards the end of the 1630s, Claude had referred to his Liber Veritatis for ideas for new ethings.
