The preparatory drawing for this engraving, dated 1559 and signed by Bruegel, is in the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam (inv. 189).

Maarten Bassens, who is currently preparing a new catalogue raisonné of prints after Bruegel, considers this an impression of the only state. The formerly described "second" state is a reworked first state in pen and brown ink.
We are grateful to Mr Bassens for this information.
