NOTES:
[1] In a letter to the MFA (March 17, 1947), John Nicholson wrote "Regarding the Tivoli, the only thing that I have been able to find out is that this picture was sold from a private collection which included several paintings by Corot, in the 'Fifth Avenue Auction Rooms,' Auctioneer, Mr. Hartman, between twenty and twenty-five years ago." The painting was probably attributed to Corot at this time; in a letter to the MFA (December 17, 1946) John Nicholson wrote that he had purchased it as a Corot. It was later attributed to Pierre Valenciennes.
