This impression does not correspond with any states listed by Bouillon; it is similar to state iii with the delineation of the church windows, but does not bear the inscription of Delatre. Although Bouillon and Beraldi mention impressions of the last state "sans lettre," this impression is also clearly prior to this published state, where additional line work was added on right foreground.
Subject taken from Rabelais.
