Provenance: Ex-collection Reginald Steengracht van Moyland, Cannes; acquired from the latter by the consignor's family in the early 1970s.

Reginald "Reggie" van Moyland was a long time personal friend of the consignor's father. Reginald's father, Baron Henry Steengracht van Moyland (1869-1932), was an avid art collector, a passion he handed down to Reggie at an early age. Reginald's keen interest in art and antiques continued until his death in 1992.
