ProvenanceCreated New York, 1903, printed ca. 1911. [Barry Singer Gallery, Petaluma, CA]; Julian T. Baker Jr., Raleigh, NC, 2007; Estate of Julian T. Baker Jr.; [Etherton Gallery, Tucson, AZ]; sold to NCMA, 2012 [1].

[1] Baker’s will stated that his entire collection should be sold by the Etherton Gallery and the Gitterman Gallery and the proceeds would go to the estate, which were then given to the family. The family then gave the NCMA Foundation a portion of the estate for the purpose of buying 25 photographs from the two galleries (specific photos that had been in Baker’s collection).
