Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: September 27, 1792 (The Fine Art Archive; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; BnF authorities; Geographicus Rare Antique Maps biographical dictionary of cartographers; Digitale Bibliotheek voor de Nederlandse Letteren) or August 27, 1792 (RKDartists; Integrated Authority File).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
