Two more paintings with this title were offered as lot 5 on page 3 and lot 27 on page 4 in the catalog of a 17 November 1885 auction in San Francisco. Unfortunately, there is not enough information in those sources to either include or exclude the possibility that one of those paintings is the same as this one. |
