La imagen de la lámina es mucho más oscura de lo que parece en las fotos, no sirve para exponer. Además en su anuncio solo menciona un desgarro pero tiene varios, tapados con cinta adhesiva. Un engaño

De kaart naar de Molen van Ruysdael werd omschreven als "ets/etching". Een deskundige van een veiling vertelde echter dat het om een eenvoudige herdruk op nieuw papier ging. Zonde van 26 euro kosten.

Great packaging. Did ask if two orders could be combined as it turned out to be the same seller. I didn’t get a response and alle items were shipped in one package even though paid for shipping twice
