I purchased these from an estate sale a few months ago and am just now getting to them.
I have about 40 of them in total, most are prints of Gabriël Metsu paintings, I can find the paintings online just fine but I can't find prints like these anywhere.
Any help with what they are and they're value would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Tnet.

Those are nice, but not valuable I’m afraid. They’re not prints as such, but have been isolated from an art book titled ‘Klassischer Bilderschatz’ (Classic Treasure Trove of Images) by Franz von Reber and Adolf Bayersdorfer. It was originally published in 1889, but there are also more recent reprints.

You can pick up an entire volume of the original 1889 book with dozens of illustrations in decent condition for about 135-145 euros ($147-$158), so individual plates detached from it don’t have much value.

Thank you for the greeting and for answering my question, I'm going to have to get that book now.
