The copper plate is close in size to several plates used in France in 1888, including Passages de l'Opéra [386], Railway-Station, Voves [387], Mairie, Loches [413].
The copper 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.
