Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: January 27, 1687 (Structurae; RKDartists) or January 27, 1687 (The Fine Art Archive Db) or January 30, 1687 (The Fine Art Archive Db).

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.
