This box was exhibited by Wartski's of Grafton Street on 8th-21st March 1989, in an loan exhibition to mark the publication of the book of the same title. The exhibition reference the box as follows; "...by Madeline Wyndham (Mrs Percy Wyndham) who was the most celebrated pupil of Alexander Fisher. Her work was exhibited at the 1893 Royal Academy exhibition. Her home, a house called 'Clouds', designed by Philip Webb, was a favourite resort of artistic and aristocratic circles. Sir Edward Burne-Jones and his family were frequent visitors. The shape and decoration of this box has much in common with the famous artist's work." Bonhams 2018
