[QUOTE="McAdder, post: 657224, member: 7942"]There are lots and lots of printings of Piranesis works, there are printing made during his lifetime and also long after from the original plates. Most have different states which can help dating them. Then there are copies, which are also engravings, the first not long after the originals, but also modern ones. And then there are copies in different techniques. Meaning that only determining that it is an etching will not suffice to be sure that it is an original.
