Provenance
Acquired by Yvonne Ffrench (fl.1933–68) from a picture dealer in East Angla. She presumably sold it to John Pearce Higgins, whose widow sold it in July 1960 to Leonard Duke (1889–1971; D.3629), whereafter it is untraced.

Comment
This seems to be part of the same group from which FT879 and FT879a originate. In his manuscript catalogue Leonard Duke wrote:
In the margin Duke changes his mind, noting: “I think by Warwick Smith.”1 Perhaps Duke had misremembered the date of 1786 and was, in fact, describing FT879a, dated 1788.
