Rejlander's widow gave a body of his work, including negatives, to the Royal Photographic Society (RPS) in the late nineteenth century. This particular photograph was in the collection of the RPS, which was then acquired by the National Media Museum in 2003. On the history of the RPS collection and their Rejlander holdings, see Pam Roberts, "The Royal Photographic Society Collection," (Bath: Royal Photographic Society, 1994), p. 52-53.
