- On the upper margin it has the legend 'France XIIIºS - France SºXIII'.
- On the lower margin is the legend 'Instruments de Musiquel - Instrumentos de Música'.
- In the upper right-hand corner it is printed with the number '332', which suggests that the engraving is the number 332 of a series.

- Etching on steel, although a different technique could have been used.
- Made in black monochrome tone, very good in ink
- It is probably an engraving belonging to a book.

Conservation and damage:

- It is very well in ink, and has a good printing.
- The lateral margins are wide. The Engraving has a paper of fine thickness and regular quality, glued by the corners to another paper.
- The Engraving has small rust points, and a very small tear on one side.
- If it is slightly washed and bleached, the result would be very good.

Comments:
- The measurements are approximate.

- This engraving is ideal as a collector's item and a decorative element.

- The fact that the engraving has a distinctive mark or contrast is very important in order to identify data such as the engraver, the artist, the place where it was printed and other details.

- Because it is inevitable that there will be differences in tones between photos and reality, you should bear in mind that the tones of the colours in the photos are not exactly the same as the tones of the real colours.

- The Engraving on sale is the one that corresponds to the photos, which in turn are complemented in this Description, with the aim of providing a better knowledge of the Object, and never being a detailed exhibition of it.

- The data provided here are not contrasted personal opinions.
