The label to the reverse reads: “Pencil drawing… purchased at the Longford Hall Sale (Coke…). This drawing is identically copied from the picture by Angelica Kauffman in Earl Spencer’s collection at Althorp. The Althorp picture however contains a third figure, that of John 2nd Earl Spencer, brother of the ladies appearing on this drawing”. The content of Longford Hall was sold in 1908 and the property and land was sold in 1935. Longford Hall was at one point owned by the Coke family.
