NOTE: It is not known precisely when or how Dudensing Galleries acquired this painting, but dealer F. Valentine Dudensing acquired another Charreton painting (MFA accession no. 48.528) directly from the artist in 1922, and wrote to John Taylor Spaulding about having visited Charreton in France. The gallery exhibited work by the artist in the early 1920s.
