| Provenance and Comments: | Tausch 1: On March 3, 1941, the art dealer Gustav Rochlitz exchanged 11 "degenerate" paintings for two Old Masters, one painting by Jan Weenix and another by a Master of Northern Italy. The works were looted from the collections of Alphonse Kann, Paul Rosenberg, and Alfred Lindenbaum (Lindon) and produced by the following painters: Braque, Cezanne, Corot, Degas, Matisse, Picasso, Renoir and Sisley. Sent by Rochlitz to Buching/Hohenschwangau. [Rochlitz report, p.11].There, the painting was plundered in April 1945. This work by Picasso was restituted following a decision by a Swiss court which compelled Emil Bürhle to return it to its rightful heirs, the Lindon/Lindenbaum family. | ||||||||
