Provenance

Unknown. It was probably destroyed at the time of Whistler's bankruptcy in 1879.

According to the Pennells, a portrait of Maud Franklin 'in bonnet and furs' was 'owned by Mrs Walter Sickert, and by her returned to Whistler.' 1 The description fits A Portrait: Maud [YMSM 186] but since the Pennells thought the portrait was one exhibited at the SBA in 1886-1887 (which was Harmony in Black, No. 10 [YMSM 357]) the evidence is inconclusive.
