NOTE: An earlier version of this provenance document suggested that this print came from the collection of Walter Benjamin Tiffin (Lugt 2609). There is no evidence for this assertion, which may be based on a misidentification of the Tiffin's collector's stamp for that of the Yorck van Wartenburg family.
