"There are two versions of the catalogue. Type B, which we take to be the more definitive and presumably the later one, has lot 11 on the second day as a copy after Correggio, whereas Type A gives the same lot as some portraits by Lucas van Leyden. Furthermore, lot 24a, a landscape by Dughet, does not appear in the earlier version. (See also Redford, Art Sales, 1888, I, pp.94-95.)"--Getty Provenance Index Databases.
