British Museum: “Three oriental figures (Jacob and Laban?); outside porch, with additional figure in doorway; copy in reverse after Rembrandt. 1770 … Although unsigned and bound in the volume of a collection of prints by John and George Smith of Chichester, this print is believed to be made by John alone as there are no other known prints by George after Rembrandt.
