Provenance:
Acquired directly from the artist by the noted Austrian playwright and librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal (1874-1929).

Her son, Andrew Zimmer (d.2003) inherited the painting, which has since descended in the family.

This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Gilbert Petrides, Paris, dated October 22, 1990, no. 21.991.
