Notes
Elizabeth Corne Dyckman Cruger (1822-1901) is the first recorded owner of this painting. Several unnamed paintings are listed in the 1824 inventory of Boscobel taken at the death of Peter Corne Dyckman. Rev J. Bolton, History of the County of Westchester (New York, 1881) p. 179 cites Elizabeth Cruger as residing at Boscobel and owner of the painting. In 1919, The Buffalo Fine Arts Academy (now the Albright-Knox Art Gallery) purchased the painting from her daughter, Eliza Corne Cruger (1841-1933). On December 18, 1943, the portrait was then sold by the museum at Parke-Benet Galleries, New York. Artist and writer Ilse Bischof purchased the painting and brought it to her country house in Vermont. When the house was purchased in 1984, the painting passed to its current owner, Timotheus R. Pohl.
