EXHIBITIONS
Other important exhibitions were held by print dealers, particularly H. Wunderlich & Co. in New York, in 1898 and 1903. Charles Lang Freer (1856-1919) bought two impressions from this 1898 show (, ). 11
Finally impressions were exhibited in the Memorial Exhibitions after Whistler's death, including one impression lent by Freer (probably ) to the Grolier Club in New York in 1904. One impression was also lent from the Royal Collection to the London show of 1905. 12
