Geneva, Musée d'art et d'histoire de Genève, Exposition d'œuvres du peintre genevois Firmin Massot (1766–1849) appartenant à des collections privées, 1927, no. 72.
Andrienne Bourdillon was married in 1812 to Jean-Jacques-Caton Chenevière (1783–1871), the noted theologist who taught at the Academy of Geneva, where he also served as rector.
We are grateful to Valérie Louzier-Gentaz for endorsing the attribution to Massot, on the basis of digital images, and for dating the portrait to circa 1810.
