Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: March 10, 1810 (Benezit Dictionary of Artists; RKDartists; Biografisch Portaal; KNAW Past Members; data.mleuven.be) or February 10, 1810 (The Fine Art Archive Db) or May 10, 1810 (Dictionnaire des Wallons).

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.
