Context (Acquisition Details)
The Marlborough Robert Pryor collection entered the museum in multiple stages. The first donation was in 1912, given by Marlborough Pryor himself. The second was in 1921, following his death in April 1920, given by his son Walter Marlborough Pryor. The third was in 1983 and took the form of two deposits: one from his grandson, Robert Matthew Marlborough Pryor, and the other from Henry Kendall and Sons Ltd., the firm of South American merchants for whom Pryor worked after leaving Cambridge.
