[1] Duveen Brothers claimed that the bust had been given by Louis XIV of France (who commissioned the original marble version) to his brother Philippe, duc d'Orléans, and that it was kept in Philippe's Château de Saint-Cloud until the residence burned in 1870. However, no such bust is cited as being at Saint-Cloud or in the royal residences by any existing guidebook or inventory.
