Provenance

Ownership history

  1. Arthur Tooth and Sons, London, by 1919 [according to the mount of a photograph in Witt Library, London]], presumably as a pair with the portrait of Mrs. Pringle, monogrammed and dated 1797, now in the Baltimore Museum of Art. Probably Frank G. Logan, Chicago (d. 1937) [his ownership can be inferred from the joint gift of his sons, see below]; probably at his death to his widow, Jeanette Hancock Logan, Chicago, (d. 1943), by descent to their sons Spencer H. Logan, Stuart Logan, and Waldo Logan; given by them to the Art Institute of Chicago, 1944.
