The copper plate has no maker's mark. It is similar in size to The Little Rag Shop, Milman's Row
[265], which was made by Hughes & Kimber, copper merchants.
The plate was in Whistler's studio at his death and was bequeathed to Rosalind Birnie Philip (1873-1958) who gave it to the University of Glasgow in 1935. It was cancelled posthumously with a diagonal line across the lower left corner.
