Cormell Price, the first owner of this drawing, was a contemporary and friend of Burne-Jones and William Morris at Oxford University. He held the lease on Broadway Tower, Worcestershire, a 65-foot high folly in which he would entertain friends including Morris and Burne-Jones, who often sent him notes and postcards illustrated with caricatures.
