Both prints (plate 4 and plate 36 in the series, respectively) bear the initials "PB." The name of the printmaker has been lost, but the series was published by the editor Jacques Honervogt around 1630.. Two Street Criers. Pierre Brebiette (French, Mantes-sur-Seine ca. 1598-1642 Paris). ca. 1630. Red chalk over a sketch in black chalk. Drawings
