Note that this object does not have a complete history of ownership for the period 1933- 1934. The drawing was bought on September 1st 1934 with money from the Berlin dealer P. Cassirer with help from the Max J. Friedländer Stiftungsfonds (a special capital fund to buy works of art for the Kupferstichkabinett founded by Berlin friends and colleagues of the famous director of the print room). According to the most recent publication (see New York 2010, n. 91) this drawing belonged to a private German collection since the 16th or 17th century, but this provenance has not been confirmed by the Kupferstichkabinett after further research in their archives. A copy of the correspondence is on file at the National Gallery.
