Impressions taken from this plate (1) |
The copper plate is close in size but does not exactly match some other plates, including The Mill, Amsterdam [457].
The copper plate came with Whistler's estate to Rosalind Birnie Philip (1873-1958), who gave it to the Hunterian Art Gallery in 1935. It was cancelled posthumously with a diagonal line from centre left, to near the top, at right.
