Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: March 15, 1834 (Integrated Authority File; Benezit Dictionary of Artists; RKDartists; Czech National Authority Database; Purkyně, Karl (BLKÖ)) or March 11, 1834 (The Fine Art Archive Db; Encyclopedia of Brno History).
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.
