ProvenanceDr. Raikai collection [1]; [sale, Kieselbach Galéria, Budapest, “Tavaszi Képaukció,” April 11, 2003, lot 43.]; purchased by the MFAH, 2003.

[1] The canvas bears a reference to the 1912 exhibition at the Moderne Galerie, Munich, possibly as cat. no. 34, when the work may still have been in the artist’s possession. [Supplemental documentation at the Musée d’Orsay, Paris, consulted by Robert McD. Parker, October 2024.] Neither the acquisition date, nor Dr. Raikai’s full ownership dates are currently known.
