The present set, from the collection of the Counts of Plessen-Cronstern, was last offered for sale in 1991. Since then, no other complete set of these views has appeared at auction. Four plates from the Feltrinelli Collection were sold at Christie's in 1997 (now at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; two single plates (La piazza della Brà di Verona and Altra veduta della Brà di Verona) were sold elsewhere; and one plate is at the British Library in London. It appears that the present set is from a different edition than the other known examples, as it is the only one with etched plate numbers.
