Bénézit, E. Dict. des peintres, sculpteurs, 1948-1955: (Sève, Jacques Eustache; artist and engraver; 2nd half of the 18th cent. [this appears, from the activity dates, to conflate Jacques Eustache de Sève with his father Jacques, active 1742-1788])
Bénézit, Dict. of artists, 2006: (Sève, Jacques Eustache de, son of Jacques de Sève, born 1790, died 1830, active to 1815 [the birth date is impossible, and probably represents incorrect interpretation of an estimated earliest date of activity given in an unspecified source; he was first active no later than 1789; no other source has been found to confirm the date of death 1830]; 19th-c. French painter, illustrator, and engraver)
