| Notes |
The first state shows a young abbot entering the room; the figure was altered in the second state and replaced by that of a young nobleman. The inscription (which is here missing) normally reads as follow: 'Peint par I. D. de St Jean', 'Gravé par N. Bazin' and 'Se vend à Paris sur le quay Pelletier, à la pomme d'Or, au troisieme appartement. Avec Privilege du Roy 1685'. |

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  | ||||
