Provenance:
Acquired by the vendor's Grandfather, George Blizard, who was the chauffeur / engineer to the Rothschild family, who lived at Aston Clinton.
By repute, these panels formed part of a larger screen that was purchased when the house was sold by the Rothschild family in 1923. Thence by descent.
