<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ex Libris, post: 9810306, member: 14916&quot;]I am not an expert about old engravings so I can’t tell if they are from the period or not. One of the engravings is “The Young Mother” made by Cornelis Bega. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/nl/zoeken/objecten?q=Bega&amp;p=2&amp;ps=12&amp;st=Objects&amp;ii=4#/RP-P-BI-775,16" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/nl/zoeken/objecten?q=Bega&amp;p=2&amp;ps=12&amp;st=Objects&amp;ii=4#/RP-P-BI-775,16" rel="nofollow">https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/nl/zoeken/objecten?q=Bega&amp;p=2&amp;ps=12&amp;st=Objects&amp;ii=4#/RP-P-BI-775,16</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It was very common that museums reprinted old masters. You vould buy thrm as a souvenir. I have a few prints in my collection that were printed by the Louvre called calcographie du Louvre. I suspect your prints have a similar origin. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" rel="nofollow">https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/</a></p><p><a href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" rel="nofollow">[ATTACH=full]487832[/ATTACH] </a></p><p><a href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" rel="nofollow"><br /></a></p><p><a href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://francetoday.com/culture/art_and_design/chalgographie_-_musee_du_louvre/" rel="nofollow">[ATTACH=full]487833[/ATTACH] </a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
