Description: Very fine impression, with some varied tone left on the plate, on thick laid paper with large margins, signed with the red owl stamp and with the Buhot family triangular stamp verso. The verso is also inscribed in pencil "1er Etat." According to Bourcard, the image apears at the head of the page of a work entitled "La Prophétie de Cazotte inventée par La Harpe," included in the book Le Diable Amoureux. The standing figure is meant to be Cazotte himself. Impressions apart from the book edition are rare.
