Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: July 25, 1675 (Thornhill, Sir James; Artists of the World Online; Brockhaus Enzyklopädie; RKDartists; Encyclopædia Britannica Online; BnF authorities) or July 25, 1676 (Artists of the World Online).
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.
