Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: May 11, 1614 (Integrated Authority File; Benezit Dictionary of Artists) or May 10, 1614 (The Fine Art Archive).

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.
