Footnotes

Provenance
John Campbell, 2nd Marquis of Breadalbane KT, PC, FRS (1796 - 1862)
Lady Mary Campbell (1795 - 1862)
Richard Plantagenet Campbell Temple-Nugent-Brydges-Chandos-Grenville, 3rd Duke of Buckingham and Chandos GCSI, PC, DL (1823 - 1889)
The Right Honourable Mary Elizabeth Temple-Nugent-Brydges-Chandos-Grenville, 11th Lady Kinloss, CI (1852 - 1944)
Lt.-Col. The Honourable Thomas George Breadalbane Morgan-Grenville (1891 - 1965), and thence by descent to the present owner


The present painting is known to have belonged to the 2nd Marquis of Breadalbane. It is possible, therefore, that his father, John Campbell, 1st Marquis of Breadalbane, inherited the present painting from his grandfather, James Maitland, 7th Earl of Lauderdale via his mother, Lady Elizabeth Maitland, when it might have hung at Thirlestane Castle, Lauder. The 2nd Marquis is known to have embellished Langton Castle in Berwickshire (later rebuilt to a design by David Bryce in 1886 as Langton House and finally demolished in 1950) with chattels from his other family property, Taymouth Castle, Perth and Kinross. The 2nd Marquis married Eliza Baillie from Mellerstain House, Gordon, suggesting a possible alternative provenance.
