I don't know where (or if) it's documented, but im_class seems to give
you what you want.

------
class Foo(object):
    def x(self):
        return 42

f = Foo()
print f.x.im_class
------

king:play$ ./x.py
<class '__main__.Foo'>

I have no idea why it's not __imclass__ or some such, but poking
around with dir() is a great way to explore little nooks and crannies
like this.  I just printed dir(Foo().x) and tried stuff that looked
interesting until I found what I (you) wanted.
