1791, likely commissioned from S. H. Grimm (London, England) by Cornelius Heathcote Rodes (1754-1825) [also de Rodes or Rhodes] (Barlborough Hall, Derbyshire, England), since Rodes had commissioned a number of other similar views of his estate from Grimm. In 1844, the artwork likely then passed to William Hatfield Gossip (1824-1883), after 1844 known as William Hatfield de Rodes, who inherited from Cornelius Heathcote Rodes Barlborough Hall and associated property, which then passed to his daughter, Sophy Felicite de Rodes (1875-1935). Sophy Felicite de Rodes married Godfrey Locker Lampson in 1905. The artwork was recorded as being in the Locker Lampson family collection. 1991, sold by the Fine Art Society (London, England) to the Elvehjem Museum of Art [now called the Chazen Museum of Art].
