This painting was formerly owned by Miss Florence Griswold (probably acquired as a gift from the artist) and hung in the front hallway of the house in the early years of this century. As provided by her will, Miss Florence left the painting to Mrs. Doris Cone, her housekeeper. Subsequently, in 1977, Mr. Clemens Herschel acquired the painting with the understanding that he would leave it to the Museum.
