This print came to the Museum inserted in an album of caricatures clipped from contemporary periodicals, assembled around 1873 by the artist and etcher Arthur Heseltine. Born in England, Heseltine lived for a time in Bourron-Marlotte, near the forest of Fountainebleau in France, and later in Glasgow. The album later belonged to William Lieberman, a curator at the Museum of Modern Art, and chairman of the Department of 20th Century Art at the Metropolitan Museum.
