There are many sellers listed in the annotated copy; only five paintings are from Thornhill. These five are the works of Sir James Thornhill, but it is unclear if "Mr. Thornhill" refers to his son, John, who died in 1757. | | Catalog Location(s) | CL [annotations used in Sales Contents; photocopy in Provenance Index Sales Files] Auctioneer's copy, Annot. with prices and names | | See Also | Sale Contents | | | Art Sales Catalogues Online | | | Digitized Catalog - Frick | | | |
