Conjectured to be part of a collection of paintings commissioned by Sir Jonathan Hutchinson and kept in The Clinical Museum, 1 Park Crescent, London, most of which subsequently entered the Welch Medical Library, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. Several works by "Miss Green" --inferred to be the Mabel Green who signed this painting--are mentioned by Hutchinson in his Descriptive catalogue of the clinical museum and journal of proceedings, 1894, and in his Archives of surgery (loc. cit.)
