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.
