Provenance

Where it has been

  1. Until 1920 –
    Probably the Count of Walterstorff [1755-1820]1
    high confidenceCleveland Museum of Art
    “Probably the Count of Walterstorff [1755-1820]1 (Until 1920) [notes: 1 The Count of Walterstorff was the Minister of Denmark to the French court.  The 1987 Zurbarán catalogue raisonné by Jeannine Baticle notes that “it is not unlikely” that the Cleveland picture is the one that appears in the Walterstorff sale due to the matching dimensions and description.  However, the circumstances of his acquisition of the painting are unknown.]”
  2. 1821 –
    (Probably Walterstorff sale, Laneuville, Paris, March 26-27, 1821, no. 65, sold to Laneuville)1
    high confidenceCleveland Museum of Art
    “(Probably Walterstorff sale, Laneuville, Paris, March 26-27, 1821, no. 65, sold to Laneuville)1 (1821) [notes: 1The Zurbarán likely failed to sell and was effectively bought in by Jean-Louis Laneuville, a painter who also held auctions and compiled sale catalogues, including this one.  This scenario is more likely than that which proposes that the painting was purchased by collector Ferdinand Laneuville, whose posthumous sale in 1866 at Hôtel Drouot included no works by Zurbarán. ]”
