- Note
- It is unlikely that Ricardo obtained the woodblock for this woodcut from Trugillo (rather than from the Crombergers). For, if he did, that block would be the only one Ricardo obtained from Trugillo. In any case, I have not been able to find any other of Ricardo's woodcuts among Trugillo's publications.
