SALES & COLLECTORS
One impression has not been located, that owned by Howard Mansfield (1849-1938) in 1909-1910 (). Only two impressions have been located, one that stayed in the artist's studio, and was given by Rosalind Birnie Philip (1873-1958) to the University of Glasgow (), and another that was acquired - probably from Colnaghi's in the 1930s - by Margaret Selkirk Watson Parker (1867-1936), who left it to the University of Michigan Museum of Art, Ann Arbor ().
