Whistler, James McNeill, 'Une Dernière Incarnation,' The Standard, 21 November 1902; (#09448). JW complained in his letter that Frederick Wedmore (1844-1921), art critic [more], had suggested in a review of the 12th Exhibition, Society of Portrait Painters, New Gallery, London, 1902, that Grenat et or: Le Petit Cardinal (YMSM 469) was an old painting. Wedmore had, in fact noted that, before its arrival at the New Gallery, the picture had been exhibited at the 12th Exhibition, Ouvrages de Peintures, Sculpture, Dessin, Gravure, Architecture et Objets d'Art, Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, Paris, 1902.
