[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 4756846, member: 56"]Laid paper would be most likely, but wove paper had been introduced by then, and it caught on pretty quickly. With all the titles consistent with the British Museum example, you're probably okay. Just as a side comment: I think it's a bit unusual having the arms overlap the image as they do here. The arms and lettering under a print were often done by third party specialists. I found several examples online, none of which looked any different from yours. This example gives dimensions: [URL]https://philamuseum.org/collection/object/735[/URL] Here's one that sold (unframed) for 60€: [URL]https://www.catawiki.com/de/l/28513371-jacques-firmin-beauvarlet-1731-1797-after-jean-marc-nattier-1685-1766-le-chaste-joseph[/URL] I didn't find any that specified the type of paper (except for one that said "thick").[/QUOTE]
