This is probably the same painting that was first exhibited at The MacDowell Club in New York in March 1913, in the Exhibition of Paintings by J.W. Beatty, Wm. Brymner, W.H. Clapp, Maurice Cullen, Clarence A. Gagnon, E. Wyly Grier, Lawren Harris, Charles W. Jefferys, and J.E.H. MacDonald, catalogue number 40, when it was titled 'The Homeseekers, A Prairie Camp.'
