NOTES:
[1] According to a letter from Pamela Ivinski, Mary Cassatt Catalogue Raisonne Committee, to Margi Conrads, NAMA, April 12, 2006, the painting was consigned by M.A. to the sale, Catalogue of Barbizon Impressionist and Modern Drawings, Paintings and Sculpture, Christie, Manson and Woods, London, December 15, 1967, no. 90. According to the price list, the work was purchased by Benderson, but the sale must not have gone through because M.A. wrote to Adelyn Dohme Breeskin in March 1969 that he still owned the work and did not plan to sell it.
