EXHIBITIONS
It was extremely rare and few exhibitions are recorded. One impression, exhibited by H. Wunderlich & Co. in New York in 1898, was bought by Bryan Lathrop (1844-1916), who lent it to the exhibition organised by the Caxton Club in Chicago in 1900 (
). 13
After Whistler's death an impression was shown at the Grolier Club exhibition in New York in 1904 and in the Whistler Memorial Exhibition in London in 1905. 14

SALES & COLLECTORS
An impression of what was then called 'Chateau St Germain', but was probably Château, Touraine, was sold by Whistler to H. Wunderlich & Co. on 6 April 1891 at £6.6.0. 15 Only one impression, the first proof, has been located, and it was bought by Bryan Lathrop (1844-1916) before 1900, from Wunderlich's (
). It is now in the Art Institute of Chicago. The sole other impression recorded and reproduced by Edward Guthrie Kennedy (1849-1932) appears to have been damaged and has not been located (
).
