<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moreotherstuff, post: 46998, member: 56&quot;]I believe that the earliest version is the Princeton example with identification scratched on the plate under the image.&nbsp; That identification includes the date 1764.&nbsp; The &quot;4&quot; in that date is ambiguous.&nbsp; It might be a &quot;3&quot; that was changed to a &quot;4&quot;.&nbsp; Either way, I believe that print pre-dates yours, if only by some nominal amount.&nbsp; That informal identification was then erased (scraping/burnishing - doesn&#039;t matter), but traces of the lettering remain and can be seen on both your example and the British Museum example.&nbsp; After that, more formal captioning was added to the image as shown in Fig&#039;s link, but I believe that the traces of lettering from the earlier example are carried over and can be seen on the formally captioned later image.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think that what you are considering with respect to the Antiques Roadshow are examples of prints pulled from plates produced by Rembrandt, but after Rembrandt&#039;s death.&nbsp; That&#039;s a different situation from this, which is a copy of a Rembrandt produced by a different artist.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s an auction that shows your print together with a Rembrandt print, the pair estimated between 500-750 Euros.&nbsp; I believe the bulk of that value is in Rembrandt&#039;s Joseph print.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.expertissim.com/estampes/harmensz-van-rijn-rembrandt-joseph-contant-ses-songes-gravure-12207285" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.expertissim.com/estampes/harmensz-van-rijn-rembrandt-joseph-contant-ses-songes-gravure-12207285" rel="nofollow">https://www.expertissim.com/estampes/harmensz-van-rijn-rembrandt-joseph-contant-ses-songes-gravure-12207285</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
