Inscriptions and Marks
  • legend: lower margin below design, printer's ink, lithographed: Dresden bei Brückmann (Dresden with Brückmann) [The inscription implies that Brückmann could just as well be this print's publisher, rather than its artistic creator.]
  • legend: lower margin, printer's ink, lithographed, German: [title] Ansicht der Kirche zu Libau bei Herrnhut (View of the Church at Libau near Herrnhut)
  • collector's mark: verso: Circular stamp, printed in red, with KUPFERSTICHKABINET DRESDEN inscribed within inner and outer borderlines (not in Lugt). Inside this border is the Saxon heraldric shield. Across this stamp a brown stamp has been struck (Lugt 5491): in a single line there is an illegible phrase beginning "a u s" indicating that the print was deaccessioned by the Dresden museum, with the date 13.11.1991.
  • inscription: verso, graphite: D.66-52-23; A1978 - 218 [probably the Kupferstichkabinet's cataloguing data]
