The website of the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, located in Kansas City, shows that they have just acquired the following Portrait of a Boy Holding a Bow. Regular readers will remember this painting from a post on AHN back in December 2023, when the work had appeared at auction in France. More recently the painting was with Philip Mould & Co. and has been catalogued by the museum (and the dealer) as 'English School 1780s.'
