Note: 
Spanierman Gallery does not date the work. I am guessing 1906 for the sake of narrative. Christies puts the date at circa 1903

This work will be included in the forthcoming John Singer Sargent catalogue raisonné by Richard Ormond and Elaine Kilmurray, in collaboration with Warren Adelson and Elizabeth Oustinoff.
