The states are: without letters; on actual vellum, signed in the plate, with two remarques in the lower margin; on vellum paper, signed in the plate, with one remarque in the lower margin; on vellum paper, signed in the plate, with no remarque in the lower margin; on vellum paper, with printed imprint, caption and artist's name in the lower margin.
