The painting was moved to Christchurch in 1907, and exhibited at the New Zealand International Exhibition. During the exhibition, it was purchased by the The Canterbury Society Of Arts, who exhibited it at their gallery. It was delivered to the Robert McDougall Art Gallery in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1932.[1]
