According to Delteil & Hyman, this lithograph was done by Volmar and "reworked with crayon and scraper by Géricault." See Delteil, Loys. Théodore Géricault, the graphic work: a catalogue raisonné, translated and revised by Alan Hyman (San Francisco: Alan Wofsy, 2010), p. 215. It is unclear which state this print is; Delteil & Hyman define the states according to inscriptions, but this impression is trimmed to exclude any possible inscriptions.
