Footnotes:
The above information is based on correspondence between Daniel Branton and Stephan Wolohojian. Professor Branton believes that the drawing was left in Antwerp with friends for safekeeping when the family fled before the Nazi occupation of 1940. Leopold Branton later returned to Antwerp to recover his art collection.
