Walters Art Museum, 1931, by bequest.[1] In a diary entry Lucas records that Bonvin made 12 watercolors for William T. Walters in 1863. The commission was likely given on 12 February (see Randall, Diary of George A. Lucas, vol. 2, p. 150), on 14 October of the same year Lucas records "Bonvin delivered the 12th flower for W's - paid him the remaining 100 fs making 300 fs for the 12" (Randall, Diary of George A. Lucas, vol. 2, p. 163).[2] In a diary entry for 10 February 1863 Lucas records "Bonvin to see me took fruit for Graham" "Bonvin 2 drawings apples oranges 30 fs." This is one of four watercolors of apples by Bonvin dating from or before this date, it is therefore possible that William T. Walters later acquired this watercolor from his Baltimore neighbor.
