Alexander Barker [c. 1797-1873], London;[1] Mrs. Benzon, in 1876.[2] "Mr. Natorp," by 1887. Sir Frances Beaufort Palmer, London, by 1910.[3] ("Goldschmidt");[4] purchased February 1913 by Peter A.B. Widener, Elkins Park, Pennsylvania; inheritance from Estate of Peter A.B. Widener by gift through power of appointment of Joseph E. Widener, Elkins Park; gift 1942 to NGA. [1] A photograph of c. 1862, neg. 3600, in the photographic archive of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, shows that the dish was at that time in Barker's collection. [2] Timothy H. Wilson, author of the NGA systematic catalogue entry published in 1993, provided this additional information in August 2000. Mrs. Benzon lent the dish to an exhibition at Wrexham that opened 22 July 1876. [3] The dish corresponds exactly to the description of the one exhibited at the Burlington Fine Arts Club exhibitions in 1887 and 1910 by "Mr. Natorp" and Sir Francis Beaufort Palmer respectively, and is almost certainly the same piece. [4] Widener collection records in NGA curatorial files. The reference is presumably to the prominent art dealers, J. and S. Goldschmidt, Frankfurt-am-Main.
