Perhaps Alfred Boreel Amsterdam [1] sold; [Muller Amsterdam 15 June 1908 lot 77 (as Rembrandt).] Paul Mathey Paris sold; [Hôtel Drouot (Delteil) Paris 28 November 1924 lot 77 repr. (as attributed to Rembrandt).] [Richard Day London] sold; to Maida and George Abrams Boston 1972 (L. 3306 verso lower left); The Maida and George Abrams Collection 2009.203
[1]. Although A. Boreel is listed as a consigner at Muller’s sale of 15 June 1908 he is not specified as the seller of our drawing. Sumowski confidently concluded that Boreel owned our drawing but we prefer instead to qualify his ownership with “perhaps.”
