Anonymous collection, Paris.[1] (Galerie Heinemann, Munich) from 1913; sold 1916 to Hans Wendland [b. 1880]. [2] (Dr. Gottlieb Friedrich Reber [1880-1959], Basel); sold to (Paul Rosenberg & Co., London, New York, and Paris); [3] sold 1928 to (Hugo Perls, New York); [4] from 1931 with (Paul Rosenberg & Co., London, New York and Paris); sold 1933 to Chester Dale [1882-1963], New York; bequest 1963 to NGA.[1] Letter from Paul Rosenberg to Chester Dale, dated 31 March 1942, in which Rosenberg described having seen the picture in an apartment in Paris before 1914 (copy NGA curatorial files).[2] Galerie Heinemann records, no. 12082 (copies NGA curatorial files).[3] Letter from Paul Rosenberg to Chester Dale, dated 31 March 1942, in which Rosenberg explains that Reber was an intermediary for a German private collection. This is likely Wendland, who bought the painting in 1916. The painting is included in the list of Reber's collection compiled by Peter Kropmanns and Uwe Fleckner, "Von Kontinentaler Bedeutung: Gottlieb Freidrich Reber und seine Sammlungen," in Die Moderne und ihre Sammler (Berlin, 2001), p 392, but was not lent by Reber to any known exhibitions of his collection.[4] See letter from Hugo Perls dated 25 November 1968, in NGA curatorial files.
