16.4.2 ; 16.4.3; 16.4.4; are all on paper with No. 1 watermark. Under microscopic examination it is clear that the lines and aquatint are finer than in the impressions from the MMA complete set (21.19.1-33) printed on paper that appears to be uniformly Serra make, even when the watermark is not present.
