Pablo Ruiz Picasso; to [Ambroise Vollard]. [Carroll Galleries New York (? - 1915) sold]; to John Quinn New York (1915-1926) sold (by his estate); to [Paul Rosenberg]. Dr. and Mrs. Harry Bakwin New York NY 1926. Maurice Wertheim New York (1936-1951) bequest; to Fogg Art Museum 1951.
Notes
Per correspondence with the owners' grandson the painting was sold during World War II this seems unlikely as Wertheim purchased the painting in 1936.
