notes
Represented in FAU090 with a lable: Georg Schou Gl.Amagertorv Nr. 2 Kjøbenhavn. Had a studio in Copenhagen 1846- ca 1861, also in Norway, Oslo 1863-66
There is a mark on the side of the number 40 that is hard to see from the pictures taken during conservation. Also what might be the manufacturers Hallmark (top right corner) is hard to see and only partly visible, but the last letter looks like an "L".
