Provenance

Ploos van Amstel [1726-1798]. Hofstede de Groot [1863-1930]. Jean Paul Richter [1847-1937], London; (sale, Frederick Muller, 27-28 May 1913, no. 95). Edwin Czeczowiczka, until 1930; (his sale, Berlin, C.G. Boerner and Graupe, 12 May 1930, no. 69); Hess.[1] Oscar Wollheim, New York; sold May 1944 to Lessing J. Rosenwald;[2] gift of the Estate of Mrs. E.G. Rosenwald to the National Gallery, 1987.

[1]According to annotated copy of Czeczowiczka auction catalogue, copy in NGA curatorial file, and confirmed in the extant archival records of the Boerner Gallery in Dusseldorf. See letter dated 28 August 2002 from Artemis Fine Arts, in NGA curatorial files. The drawing probably left Europe after April 1939; an export stamp on the back of the mount of this drawing is of a type in use in Austria, and possibly Germany, from April 1939 until May 1945.
