This painting formerly belonged to the solicitor William McNair, who was one of Hunter's most important patrons, along with his business partners William McInnes and Ion Harrison at the Glasgow shipping company of Gow, Harrison & Co. As Bill Smith and Jill Marriner have related: 'Often Hunter would arrive at the Company's offices, bringing with him sketchbooks and all manner of other things to show to and discuss with his friends.'
