Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

-Letter of 9 May 1789 (from Vienna): Eckhel swiftly replied on 9 May 1789, assenting in principle to van Damme’s proposition, because their common acquaintance Countess Bentinck had already given him a “description magnifique” of van Damme’s publication (The Hague, Rijksmuseum Meermanno-Westreenianum, FA 400, ff. 476r–477v; Dekesel - Dekesel-De Ruyck 2022, p. 588, note 44)
