On occasion, Christie's has a direct financial interest in the outcome of the sale of certain lots consigned for sale. This will usually be where it has guaranteed to the Seller that whatever the outcome of the auction, the Seller will receive a minimum sale price for the work. This is known as a minimum price guarantee. This is a lot where Christie’s holds a direct financial guarantee interest.

The date of the service suggests it may have been commissioned by Maurice Frederick FitzHardinge Berkeley (1788-1867), later Admiral of the Blue and 1st Baron FitzHardinge of Bristol following his marriage. He was the illegitimate son of the 5th Earl of Berkeley. He married Lady Charlotte Lennox, daughter of General Charles Lennox, 4th Duke of Richmond, as his first wife, in 1823.
