This print bears the inscription and blindstamp of the publishers Cadart & Chevalier, however the title page for "Eaux-fortes modernes" in 1863 bears the name of Cadart & Luquet; it was during this year, 1863, that Cadart ended his involvement with Chevalier and began his partnership with Luquet, which probably resulted in both names appearing on various aspects of the publication.
