- "This catalogue is dated January 19, 1795, and it is listed in Lugt as the 19th. However, a note in Lugt indicates that the sale was postponed to the next day, January 20, presumably based on a note in the auctioneers copy, to which we do not currently have access."--Getty provenance index databases.
