NOTES:
[1] The original of this picture went through Agnew's as follows: February 5, 1913, Agnew's (from C. Patterson); May 26, 1913, Arthur Henderson (from Agnew's); November 6, 1913, Agnew's (from Arthur Henderson); February 4, 1914, L.R. Bevan (from Agnew's); January 15, 1917, Agnew's (from G.L. Bevan); March 13, 1918, Hon. Mrs. Ronald Greville (lived at Polesden Lacey, from Agnew's). The painting in Boston MFA is not found in Agnew's records from 1913 - 1920, so "Agnew's, 1919" might be referring to the original picture.
