Accordingly, an itemized inventory of Renoir’s paintings titled “Partage par lots” was drawn up, presumably with an indication of which painting went to which son. The “ Partage par lots” is undated, however, a typed letter dated August 8, 1922 from Pierre Renoir to his cousin Eugéne suggests that it was drawn up in October 1922, see The Unknown Renoir: The Man, The Husband, The father, The Artist, Heritage Auctions, New York, September 19, 2013, lot 89007. Unfortunately, this document is not currently accessible to scholars.;[2] A photograph of this pastel in Julius Meier-Graefe, Renoir (Leipzig: Klinkhardt and Biermann Verlag, 1929), 261, is credited to Galerie Alfred Flechtheim, while the caption describes the pastel as being in a private U.S. collection. In the illustration index, the pastel is listed in Pierre Renoir’s collection.;[3] See footnote 2. The pastel was probably on exhibition at Galerie Alfred Flechtheim from October 7-November 9, 1928. It is possible that Pierre Renoir sold the pastel to Flechtheim who in turn sold the pastel to an American collector by 1929. According to Laurie Stein, President, L. Stein Art Research LLC, Chicago, and Senior Advisor for the Provenance Research Initiative at the Smithsonian Institution, Flechtheim records do not survive.

Friedland and Myna Friedland (née Siegel) married in 1946. Around March 1965, Mr. Friedland left the common home and moved to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. On February 10, 1966, Mrs. Friedland filed for divorce. After a series of legal injunctions it appears the appeal was taken to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania (January Term 1969, No. 213). According to the Laurence H. Eldredge Papers, The University of Archives and Records center, University of Pennsylvania, a divorce was granted by the opinion of the court in 1969. M yna Brady (formerly Mrs. George Friedland) married Samuel P. Brady in 1971.;[6] In a telephone call with MacKenzie Mallon on May 7, 2015, John Herring relayed that John and Paul Herring and Co. had the pastel on consignment from Myna Brady (formerly Friedland).

Purchased March 1940 from the artist by (Paul Rosenberg and Co, New York),[1] sold November 1951 to Robert von Hirsch [1883-1977], Basel, (his estate sale, Sotheby's, London, 26 June 1978, no. 751), purchased by (John Baskett, Ltd., London) for Mr. and Mrs. Paul Mellon, Upperville, Virginia, gift 1985 to NGA.;[1]This painting was confiscated by the ERR in 1941 with others from the Rosenberg collection in France (see inventory of Rosenberg-Bernstein collection, National Archives RG260/Box 470/file XI, and ERR inventory card UNB322, National Archives RG260/Property Division/Box 22, copies NGA curatorial files). Documents from the National Archives in Washington indicate that the painting was selected by Hermann Goering on 3 March 1941 from the Jeu de Paume (OSS Consolidated Interrogation Report #2, The Goering Collection, 15 September 1945, Attachment 5, 2. Nachtrag zur Liste der für die Sammlung des Reichsmarschalls Hermann Göring abgegebenen Kunstgegenstände, dated 9 April 1943, no. 6, National Archives RG239/Entry 73/Box 78, copy NGA curatorial files). Goering is documented as having traded the painting to Gustav Rochlitz, who claimed to have sold it to Hans Wendland (OSS Consolidated Interrogation Report #1, Activity of the Einsatzstab Rosenberg in France, 15 August 1945, V: Details of Exchanges, exchange #1, item no. 7, National Archives RG 239/Entry 74/Boxes 84-84A and OSS Detailed Interrogation Report #4, Gustav Rochlitz, 15 August 1945, Einsatzstab Confiscated Paintings Sold by Rochlitz, no. 30, National Archives RG239/Entry74/Boxes 85-85A, copies NGA curatorial files.).

Further documentation at the National Archives supports Wendland's claim. The picture is not among those known to have been sent by him to Switzerland with others from the same sale from Rochlitz (see Douglas Cooper, Report of Mission to Switzerland, 10 December 1945, pp. 8-9, National Archives RG 239/Entry 73/Box 82, copy NGA curatorial files). Moreover, in a letter dated 18 January 1945, Paul Rosenberg's brother Edmond states that by that time the picture was in a private collection in Paris, having been sold by the dealers Kohl and Renoux of rue Faubourg St. Honoré, Paris (Rosenberg claim file, National Archives RG260/OMGUS/Records of the Museum, Fine Arts and Archives Section/Cultural Property Claims Applications/ Box 743, copies in NGA curatorial files). Hector Feliciano, in The Lost Museum, New York, 1997, p. 121, reports that Matisse himself had seen the picture for sale in Paris in 1942. The picture was returned to the Rosenbergs (per telephone conversation with Rosenberg archives 16 March 2001) who later sold it to von Hirsch.

Joseph S. Czestochowski and Anne Pingeot (Degas Sculptures. Catalogue Raisonné of the Bronzes, Memphis, 2002: 231) state that the cast left France in 1967. Since the stock from Alfred Flechtheim's Dusseldorf and Berlin galleries, when he closed them in 1933, was mostly sent to the Mayor Gallery in London or the Galerie Simon in Paris, it appears this cast probably went to the latter. Flechtheim moved to London after he closed his galleries, and died there in 1937.;[2] This information was kindly provided by Aleksandra Todorovic, Director, Impressionist and Modern Art, Sotheby's, London, in an e-mail dated 14 January 2009 to Anne Halpern, in NGA curatorial files.;[3] Confirmation by the late Philippe Brame, personal communication to Anne Halpern, 13 January 2003, see also Mellon collection records, NGA curatorial files.

Schreiber, Beverly Hills [d. 1989], gift 1989 to NGA.;[1] This painting was confiscated by the ERR in 1941 with others from the Rosenberg collection in France (ERR inventory card PR34, National Archives RG260/Property Division/Box 19, copy NGA curatorial files). There is confusion in the archival records as to whether picture was taken from the Rosenberg vault at Libourne or the chateau at Floirac. In the Rosenberg claim file (National Archives RG260/Box 742, copies NGA curatorial files) there are lists and correspondence from Edmond Rosenberg, brother of Paul Rosenberg, which provide conflicting information. However, it seems likely the picture was taken from Floirac, as it was this part of the Rosenberg collection assigned the code "PR." Documents from the National Archives in Washington indicate that the painting was traded by the ERR on 16 November 1943, along with a Bonnard painting from the Kann collection, to the dealer Max Stöcklin in exchange for a painting by Rudolf Alt. (Receipt for the exchange, National Archives RG260/Munich Central Collecting Point/Restitution Research Records/Box 452, copy NGA curatorial files). The picture seems to be confused throughout the archival documentation with another Matisse painting described as of a woman in a yellow chair, which also appears to have been confiscated from the Rosenberg collection. However this second picture dates from 1939, is in a vertical format, and the woman is nude. On some documents the code PR34 seems to be associated with the 1939 picture, but it is clearly the NGA painting which is described on the ERR card for PR34, and on the receipt for the exchange between Stöcklin and the ERR. Moreoever, the photographs taken by the ERR of confiscated objects illustrate the NGA picture with the code PR34. After Stöcklin, the painting was traced to the Swiss dealer André Martin, and seen on view at the Galerie Neupert in Zurich (See item no. 62 on atachment B to Douglas Cooper's "Report on Mission to Switzerland," 10 December 1945, National Archives RG239/Entry 73/Box 82, copy NGA curatorial files).;The NGA picture was returned to the Rosenbergs by 1948, according to the records of the gallery, which sold it to Somerset Maugham in 1950.;[2]According to Rosenberg gallery records.;[3]Correspondence between Paul and Schreiber in NGA curatorial files.

Probably about 1914/1915, acquired Oskar Reichel (b. 1869 - d. 1943), Vienna [see note 2], February, 1939, transferred by Reichel to Otto Kallir (b. 1894 - d. 1978), Galerie St. Etienne, Paris and New York [see note 3], 1945, sold by Galerie St. Etienne, New York, to the Nierendorf Gallery, New York, 1945, sold by Nierendorf to Silberman Galleries, New York, 1947/1948, probably sold by Silberman to Sarah Reed (Mrs. John) Blodgett, later Sarah Reed Platt (d. by 1972), Grand Rapids, Portland, Oregon and Santa Barbara, 1973, bequest of Sarah Reed Platt to the MFA. (Accession Date: April 11, 1973);NOTES;[1] Kokoschka wrote to Franz Hauer on July 21, 1913 outlining the terms of Hauer’s acquisition of the painting Lovers (“Liebespaar”) the following day. After Hauer’s death in 1914, the painting was listed in an inventory of his estate as the Dancing Nude Couple (“Akt Tanzender Paar”). Many thanks to Christian Bauer of the State Gallery of Lower Austria and Katharina Erling of the Kokoschka catalogue raisonné project for supplying this information. Also see Bernadette Reinhold, "Art Enthusiast and Enfant Most Terrible," in Franz Hauer: Self-Made Man and Art Collector (exh. cat., Landesgalerie Niederösterreich, 2019), pp. 94-95.;[2] Dr. Oskar Reichel was an admirer, collector, and patron of Kokoschka's work. Tobias G. Natter, Die Welt von Klimt, Schiele und Kokoschka: Sammler und Mäzene (Cologne, 2003), 254, suggests he acquired the painting around 1914/1915. It was first published as being in Dr. Reichel's collection by Paul Westheim in Das Kunstblatt 1 (1917), p. 319.;[3] On February 1, 1939, Reichel transferred the painting--along with four other Kokoschka paintings--to the dealer Otto Kallir, who at that time ran the Galerie St. Etienne in Paris. Kallir exhibited it in Paris that spring and brought it to the United States later that year. After his arrival in the United States, he paid Reichel's two sons, who had already immigrated to North and South America, for the paintings. Kallir opened a branch of his Galerie St. Etienne in New York and exhibited this work often between 1940 and 1945.;For further information, please see "Resolved Claims" at http://www.mfa.org/collections/provenance/nazi-era-provenance-research

1890, passed from the artist to his brother, Theo van Gogh (b. 1857 - d. 1891), Paris, 1891, probably by descent from Theo van Gogh either to his sister, Wilhelmina van Gogh, or to his widow, Johanna van Gogh-Bonger (b. 1862 - d. 1925), 1894-95, possibly sold by Johanna van Gogh-Bonger to Emile Schuffenecker or Julien Moline [see note 1]. By 1920, to Josse and Gaston Bernheim-Jeune, Paris [see note 2], possibly sold by Bernheim-Jeune to Matthew Justice, Dundee, Scotland [see note 3], by 1925, probably sold by Justice to William Boyd (b. about 1873 - d. 1941), Claremont, West Ferry (near Dundee), 1929, still with Boyd [see note 4]. 1936, Arthur Tooth and Sons, London, August 26, 1936, sold by Tooth to William A. Coolidge (b. 1901 - d. 1992), Topsfield and Cambridge, MA, 1993, bequest of William A. Coolidge to the MFA. (Accession Date: January 27, 1993);NOTES;[1] In "Vincent van Gogh and Paul Cassirer, Berlin" (Zwolle, 1988), Walter Feilchenfeldt suggests the painting belonged to the artist's sister, Wilhelmina van Gogh. In a letter of January 24, 1992 (in MFA curatorial file), Mr. Feilchenfeldt reverses his opinion, suggesting that the picture was, rather, sold by Johanna van Gogh-Bonger in 1894-95, either to Emile Schuffenecker or to Julien Moline. Subsequently, in a letter of January 13, 2003 (in MFA curatorial file) he reintroduces the possibility that it was in Wilhelmina's possession.;[2] Letter from Guy-Patrice Dauberville, Bernheim-Jeune & Co. (March 20, 1992), it is not known when and how Josse and Gaston Bernheim-Jeune acquired the painting, nor when and how it left their possession. Walter Feilchenfeldt (letter of January 13, 2003, cited above, n. 1) has suggested that the painting may have acquired by the Bernheim-Jeune family as early as before the turn of the twentieth century. The gallery exhibited the work in 1904 and 1908, though it is not known who owned it at the time.;[3] Justice was a collector and art dealer. Madeleine Korn, "Collecting paintings by Van Gogh in Britain before the Second World War," Van Gogh Museum Journal, 2002, 134-35, cites a letter from A. J. McNeill Reid to Douglas Cooper (April 9, 1953) stating that Justice "went off to Bernheim-Jeune, got quite a few pictures on sale, bought a few more, and did a good deal of business with Boyd.;[4] Korn 2002 (as above, n. 3), 134-35, states that Justice sold this painting to Boyd. According to information provided by Frances Fowle, to be published in "Van Gogh and Britain: Pioneer Collectors" (Edinburgh, 2006), McNeill Reid commented in an earlier letter to Cooper (April 5, 1953) on "a couple of Van Goghs [Boyd] bought through Justice.;Boyd lent the painting (then called "La Charrue" or "The Plow") to the "Loan Collection of Pictures, Centenary of the Norwich Museum" (Norwich Museum, October 24 - November 1, 1925), cat. no. 64 and to the Royal Scottish Academy (Edinburgh, 1929), cat. no. 354. However, Korn 2002 (as above, n. 3), 136, records the painting as being with C. E. Dix in 1928. She has suggested (verbally, December 14, 2005) that around this time it was with the dealer Arthur Tooth, implying that Tooth either sold it to or purchased it from Dix in 1928. This contradicts the evidence that Boyd owned it until at least 1929, and remains unconfirmed.

(Accession Date: December 5, 1935);NOTES;[1] Although in 1888 van Gogh sent many paintings from Arles to his brother Theo in Paris, he retained the painting of the Postman Roulin. When the artist departed Arles for St. Rémy in May 1889, he left a number of paintings with his landlords the Ginoux -- though whether he intended to store them or leave them as gifts is not known. After his death the paintings were rediscovered and sold by the Ginoux through the agent Laget. See Walter Feilchenfeldt, By Appointment Only (London: Thames and Hudson, 2006), pp. 293-305.;[2] Hoogendijk made at least seven visits to Vollard's gallery between 1897 and 1899. He is known to have purchased a large group of paintings by Van Gogh on September 1, 1897, he acquired further paintings by the artist in 1899. See Herbert Henkels, "Cézanne en Van Gogh in het Rijksmuseum voor Moderne Kunst in Amsterdam: de collectie van Cornelis Hoogendijk (1866-1911)," Bulletin van het Rijksmuseum 41 (1993): 274-275, n. 23 and Rebecca A. Rabinow, ed., Cézanne to Picasso: Ambroise Vollard, Patron of the Avant-Garde (exh. cat., Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 2006), pp. 57, 59 n. 38, and 223. According to Feilchenfeldt 2006 (as above, n. 1), p. 304, this painting was among those sold in September, 1897.;[3] See Théa Sternheim, "Tagebücher, 1905-1927" (Mainz, 1995), pp. 181, 449. The picture was purchased in January of that year.;[4] Only three paintings from the auction were sold, all the others, including the "Postman Joseph Roulin," were returned to the Sternheims. See Carl Sternheim, "Briefe: Briefwechsel mit Thea Sternheim, Dorothea und Klaus Sternheim" (Luchterhand, 1988), vol. 2, p. 759.;[5] The painting was lent by Carl Sternheim to the exhibition "Ausstellung von Meisterwerken aus Privatsammlungen," Kunstmuseum Winterthur, August 20 - September 24, 1922. Following the exhibition, the painting - along with other works of art from the Sternheim collection - was deposited at the Kunstmuseum Winterthur. A letter from Heinz Keller, Curator, Kunstmuseum Winterthur to Angelica Rudenstine of the MFA (April 24, 1964), indicates that he did not know when the paintings were returned. However, the "Postman Joseph Roulin" was lent to the exhibition "Vincent van Gogh," Kunsthalle, Basel, March 27 - April 21, 1924 and Kunsthaus, Zurich, July 3 - August 10, 1924. In the catalogue it is said to be on deposit at Winterthur. Théa and Carl Sternheim divorced in 1927 and Théa retained possession of the painting.;[6] See Théa Sternheim, "Erinnerungen" (Freiburg, 1995), p. 504.;[7] According to letters from Duncan Macdonald of the Bignou Gallery (November 1, 1940) and G. Corcoran of Alex Reid and Lefèvre, Ltd. (April 30, 1964) in the MFA curatorial file. The galleries Bignou and Reid and Lefevre were associated, and shared a stock of paintings.

Silberman Galleries, New York [see note 7], 1941, sold by Silberman to the MFA for $7500. (Accession Date: December 11, 1941);NOTES;[1] Described as a work on panel by Eglon van der Neer, 27 by 25 inches, depicting a Dutch couple whose black dress indicates they are a burgomaster and his wife, sitting in an interior with a fireplace and a table with fruit on it.;[2] Eddy Schavemaker kindly provided this information.;[3] The paintings included in the February 1845 sale were sold on Morny's behalf under the name of Jean-Jacques Meffre, who served as his art advisor and painting conservator. See Robin Emlein, "La Collection du duc de Morny, Étude du goût pour les écoles du Nord en France au XIXe siècle," Master's thesis, École du Louvre, 2007, vol. 1, pp. 41-44 and vol. 2, pp. 121-122 (cat. B100).;[4] Émile Leclercq, "Correspondance Particulière," Gazette des Beaux-Arts 1861, pp. 180-181. Laneuville, an expert at the sale, was also buying for the Comte Duchâtel. This painting, however, does not appear in subsequent sales of paintings from the Comte Duchâtel collection.;[5] The painting was included in the exhibition held at Robert Lebel's gallery at 13, rue de Seine, Paris, "Une Collection de Tableaux de Petits Maitres Hollandais & Flamands," December 11-28, 1934, cat. no. 25. An old photograph of the painting exists in Lebel's photographic archive, it is annotated on the back: "Eglon van der Neer.;[6] Robert Lebel visited the MFA on October 8, 1943 and told curator W. G. Constable that he had sold this painting to Walter Westfeld around 1937. According to a letter from Walter Westfeld's brother to the MFA (February 6, 1944), Lebel had written to him in the fall of 1943 as well, stating that around 1935/1936 he had sold the painting to Westfeld, who had it at the Galerie Kleucker and "at a time, in Amsterdam." A painting described as a Company Scene by Eglon van der Neer, which is probably the present painting, was exhibited at the Galerie August Kleucker, Düsseldorf, in mid-May, 1936.;[7] A photograph of the painting, supplied to the MFA by Silberman, bears W. R. Valentiner's authentication on the reverse, dated May 15, 1941. The painting was first offered to the MFA on June 3, 1941. A subsequent letter from dealer Abris Silberman to W. G. Constable of the MFA (June 3, 1942) states that "the painting was brought to this country by a refugee some time ago" but had never been in a U.S. collection. Attempts to determine when and how Silberman acquired the work have not been successful.;ADDITIONAL INFORMATION;In 1920 Walter Westfeld opened a gallery that bore his name in Elberfeld (present-day Wuppertal). However, under the Nazi regime he was forced to discontinue his business because he was Jewish, the Galerie Walter Westfeld officially closed on May 27, 1936. Several months later, his associate August Kleucker was put in charge of liquidating the gallery stock through the Galerie Kleucker in Düsseldorf. It is not known whether this painting had formed part of Westfeld's gallery stock or whether he owned it privately, thus it is not known if it was part of the 1936 liquidation through Kleucker. In the fall of 1937, Westfeld was forced to turn over to the Gestapo a list of all the works of art still in his possession, the Van der Neer does not appear on this list. Whether it was no longer in Westfeld's possession at this time, or had been deliberately left off the list, is uncertain.;In November 1938 Westfeld was arrested for foreign exchange violations. He was subsequently found guilty of having -- after the closure of his gallery -- illegally shipped works of art and other assets abroad, to Paris and Amsterdam, and of continuing to sell his own works of art through Kleucker. Whether the Van der Neer left his possession in one of these ways is not known. According to correspondence from a family member to the MFA (November 11, 2004), Westfeld had paintings and other valuables at the Rotterdamse Wisselbank in Amsterdam as late as 1939, again, it is not known if the Van der Neer could have been among these. The valuables were apparently taken unlawfully and sold during World War II, and remain untraced.;In 1939 Nazi authorities seized Westfeld's remaining art assets in Germany and auctioned them through Lempertz, Cologne, on December 12-13, 1939. The Van der Neer painting was not included in this sale.;After Westfeld's trial in Nazi Germany, he served a prison sentence at Lüttringhausen. In 1942 he was sent to the Theresienstadt concentration camp and, in 1943, to Auschwitz. He was declared deceased at the end of World War II.;In June, 2011 the MFA reached a financial settlement with the heirs and the estate of Walter Westfeld for the Portrait of a Man and Woman in an Interior, allowing the work to remain at the museum. This was based on a review of the above research, which outlines a limited number of ways the painting could have left his possession. It seems unlikely that Westfeld gave or sold the painting voluntarily after the closure of his gallery in May, 1936. Rather, as a Jewish art dealer living in Nazi Germany, he probably disposed of it due to persecution.;Bibliography: Herbert Schmidt, Der Elendsweg der Düsseldorfer Juden: Chronologie des Schreckens, 1933-1945 (Düsseldorf: Droste, 2005), pp. 273-278, Victoria S.

Possibly with Galerie Alfred Flechtheim, Berlin and Düsseldorf [1]. Possibly with Curt Valentin, Buchholz Gallery, New York [2]. Frank E. Freeman, Villanova, PA (1908-2001), bequest to PMA, 2002.;1. The sculpture bears a partially obscured Flechtheim label that probably would have read in its entirety "Galerien Flechtheim / Berlin W10 Lützowufer 13 / Düsseldorf Königsallee 34”, indicating that the sculpture was at least exhibited there if not part of the gallery's stock. It may have been included in the exhibition at the Berlin branch, "Weihnachten 1931: Wilhelm Lehmbruck zu seinem 50. Geburtstag, 4. Januar 1881," December 13, 1931-mid-January 1932, no. 7 ("Kopf der Sinnenden," Stein, 1913/14) (see installation photo in catalogue). Flechtheim closed his galleries in Berlin and Düsseldorf in 1933 and moved first to Paris and then London.;2. A partial label on the sculpture that reads "NY 53[8 or 5?]. / Wilhelm Leh[mbruck] / Kopf der Sinnend[en]. I / Thinki[ng] girl / Stone....” may come from the Curt Valentin's Buchholz Gallery. Valentin worked for Flechtheim in Berlin after 1927, organizing exhibitions and co-editing the gallery’s magazine Omnibus. He opened the Buchholz Gallery in New York in 1937, and frequently exhibited sculptures by Lehmbruck with such general titles as "Head of a Girl, 1913-14" or "Head of Thinking Girl," described as "stone" or "cast stone" (for example, in 1937 and 1939), however these are not illustrated and often the dimensions are not supplied.

Valentine Dudensing Gallery and then the Valentine Gallery in 1927. Valentine Dudensing and his wife made the first of their annual buying trips to Europe in summer 1920 (communication from Julia May Boddewyn, March 6, 2017, in curatorial file). The Valentine Gallery specialized in modernist art, whereas the Dudensing Galleries specialized in 19th century art.

Scheyer (1889-1945), San Francisco and Los Angeles [2], sold to Louis Blembel, [Los Angeles?], 1943 [3]. With Stendahl Art Galleries, Los Angeles, as of August 1948 (from Blembel?) [4], sold to Louise and Walter C. Arensberg, Los Angeles, September 28, 1948 [5], gift to PMA, 1950.;1. Kahnweiler shipped the painting to Karl Nierendorf in New York on November 19, 1937 (information provided by Dr. Christian Rümelin, director, Catalogue raisonné Paul Klee, letter in curatorial file). As is evident from Nierendorf's correspondence with Earl Stendahl of the Stendahl Art Galleries (Archives of American Art), at the time of the 1941 Klee exhibition organized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York, which traveled to San Francisco and Los Angeles, Nierendorf sent the painting, along with thirteen others, on consignment to Galka Scheyer in California. Probably shortly after the exhibition, she or Nierendorf lent the painting to John Huston on approval as a prospective buyer, when Huston left for military service around 1942 he returned the painting to Scheyer without buying it. In the meantime, after major disagreements Nierendorf had cancelled his business agreement with Scheyer. He attempted to retrieve this and other paintings he had with her, without success. Nierendorf was still trying to get the paintings back, or at least prevent her from selling them, when he wrote to Stendahl on February 9, 1943, that he had received an offer for the painting from Scheyer, who had found a buyer for it. Later, on February 23, he wrote Stendahl that "in spite of my protests she has sold Klee's 'Red Roof'," to a buyer she apparently did not disclose to him (see copies of correspondence in curatorial file).;2. A photo of ca. 1943 shows the painting hanging in Scheyer's house, see Sandback, "Blue Heights Drive," Artforum, v. 28, no. 7, p. 124.;3. According to the curatorial records, "Property of Louis Blembel" was written in pencil on the back of the frame, however, because the painting has been reframed the name cannot be verified. The same person (apparently a young man, Scheyer refers to him as a 'boy') bought two works by Lyonel Feininger from Scheyer in 1944, an oil entitled 'Fishing Cutter' of 1940 and a watercolor called 'Shelter Cove' of 1939. Scheyer mentions in a letter to Feininger of August 5, 1944, that Blembel "fell in love before" with a beautiful Klee which he paid for in installments -- undoubtedly "But the Red Roof!". The architect Rudolph M. Schindler built a house in Hollywood for a L. Blembel in 1949, possibly the same person.;4. Stendahl offered the painting to Curt Valentin of the Buchholz Gallery in a letter of August 25, 1948 (Stendahl Art Galleries records, Archives of American Art).;5. Receipt of this date from Stendahl Galleries in curatorial file (original in Arensberg Archives). A note in the curatorial file records a conversation with Stendahl, April 8, 1954, in which Stendahl said that he sold the painting to Walter Arensberg five or six years previously and that it came from Galka Scheyer's collection, who originally offered it to Arensberg.;* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

According to provenance notes he made in 1951 (dated September 8, 1951, PMA, Arensberg Archives, box 34, f.22), Duchamp purchased the work for the Arensbergs at an auction in 1937. As no other reference to the auction sale of a work by Braque resembling this one can be found for the period 1935-40, it is likely that he was mistaken and that he and Crotti bought the painting two years earlier, at the 1935 Drouot auction.

Coady, Forgotten Spokesman for Avant-Garde Culture in America," American Art Review, vol. 2, no. 6 (Nov.-Dec. 1975), p. 81.;2. A painting by Gris entitled "Le buveur" was lent by Faure for exhibition at de Hauke & Co., NY, in April 1930. The dimensions listed in the de Hauke & Co. exhibition logbook, 50 1/4 x 34 3/4 in., match the PMA painting closely. Supporting this identification is the fact that C.J. Bulliet, The Significant Moderns and their Pictures (New York, 1936) illustrated the PMA painting, pl. 211, as "The Drinker", captioned C. de Hauke & Co. See Archives of American Art, Jacques Seligmann & Co. Records / Series 9.4 / Box 406 / f. 8 / De Hauke & Co., Inc.

Faure" originally on reverse). According to Douglas Cooper, Faure formed his large collection of 26 paintings by Gris between 1915 and 1927, buying from Léonce Rosenberg. Some 21 oil paintings owned by Faure were lent to the 1933 Zürich exhibition (all pre-1920). Cooper states that the entire collection was acquired by Kahnweiler's Galerie Simon in Paris in 1933 (Cooper, The Essential Cubism, 1983, pp. 25, 31). However, none of the Arensberg Gris paintings, all from the Faure collection, have Galerie Simon labels. This suggests that Duchamp acquired them directly from Faure (see note 4).;3. Provenance notes made for the Arensbergs by Marcel Duchamp, dated Sept. 8, 1951 (PMA, Arensberg Archives), state that this and the other four paintings by Gris in the Arensberg collection were acquired as a group from a "private collection" (Faure's?).;* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

E. Gallatin, New York, by October 1935 [4], bequest to PMA, 1952.;1. Bought together with two other works by Gris. The Gazette de l'Hôtel Drouot did not record buyers for the fourth Kahnweiler sale. See also note 4.;2. Zürich, Kunsthaus, "Juan Gris," 1933, no. 36, lent by Alfred Flechtheim, Berlin. According to the catalog, apparently in the dealer Flechtheim's private collection and not for sale at this date. Flechtheim had a significant personal collection of works by Gris, however, this painting is not listed in the inventory of Flechtheim's private collection in Ottfried Dascher, "Es ist was Wahnsinniges mit der Kunst": Alfred Flechtheim, Sammler, Kunsthändler, Verleger, Wädenswil, 2011, "Die Private Sammlung Alfred Flechtheim," pp. 423-425.;3. Flechtheim was closely associated with the dealer Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, (1884-1979) who provided him with paintings. Upon the closing of his galleries in Düsseldorf and Berlin in November 1933, Flechtheim apparently sent much of his stock to Kahnweiler's Galerie Simon in Paris (see Nancy Yeide, AAM Guide to Provenance Research, "Flechtheim", p. 223, and Pierre Assouline, An Artful Life: A Biography of D. H. Kahnweiler, 1884-1979, New York, 1990, p. 231-232).;4. In a letter to Gallatin dated October 12, 1935 Kahnweiler states that after the Hôtel Drouot sale in 1923 the painting had been bought by someone in Paris (from this sale?) and that it had belonged to a small (private?) collection in Paris, from which he bought it back through an intermediary, who did not disclose the name of the collector (Gallatin Papers, New York Historical Society, microfilm). He makes no mention of Flechtheim.

A torn dealer label on the back of the painting reads "Bonjean", with a partial address in French. Galerie Bonjean was apparently in operation from the late 19th century to at least 1935 (see Getty Provenance Index and Grove Dictionary of Art, among other sources). The important dealer Étienne Bignou was a stepson of a Paris dealer named Bonjean, possibly related, whose gallery and stock he inherited (see Douglas Cooper, Alex Reid & Lefèvre, 1926-1976, London, 1976, p. 17).;2.

Elizabeth Hutton Turner, Duncan Phillips Collects: Paris Between the Wars, Washington, DC, 1991, p. 43-45 and n. 92, citing Paul Rosenberg Papers, Pierpont Morgan Library.;2. Reber underwent financial difficulties as a result of the Depression: Alfred H. Barr wrote to MOMA trustee Stephen C. Clark on July 13, 1934, that the painting 'formerly in the Reber Collection, is now apparently in the possession of a bank following Reber's recent collapse on the Paris bourse', see Dorothy Kosinski, "G. F. Reber: Collector of Cubism," Burlington Magazine, v. 133, August 1991, p. 526.;3. The Zwemmer Gallery ledger records the sale to Gallatin on September 18, 1936, with a note that the work was being sent to New York directly from Lausanne, see Nigel Vaux Halliday, More Than a Bookshop: Zwemmer's and Art in the 20th Century, London, 1991, p. 183. In addition, a letter of Alfred Barr (who was campaigning to acquire the painting for MOMA at the time) dated July 31, 1936, notes that Zwemmer was offering the painting.;The Mayor Gallery in London may also have been involved in the sale: Morris' painted receipt (Gallatin Papers, New York Historical Society) for his half of the payment for the painting refers to the Mayor Gallery and not to Zwemmer, repro. in Susan Larsen, "Albert Gallatin: the 'Park Avenue Cubist' Who Went Downtown," Art News, December 1978, p. 80. The Mayor Gallery, however, has no record of this transaction, as indicated to Gail Stavitsky by Andrew Murray, Director, letter of April 21, 1989, and by Dorothy Kosinski, curator of the Douglas Cooper Collection, see Gail Stavitsky, The Development, Institutionalization, and Impact of the A.E. Gallatin Collection of Modern Art [Ph. D. dissertation, New York University], 1990, v. 9, p. 240, and letter from Stavitsky dated 19 October 1989 in curatorial file. Nevertheless the Mayor Gallery's connection with Reber is well documented, Douglas Cooper, who was one of the gallery's directors from 1933 to 1937 or 1938, bought fifteen works from Reber in the 1930's (see Dorothy Kosinski, Picasso, Braque, Gris, Léger: Douglas Cooper Collecting Cubism, Houston, 1990, p. 22).;* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

Private Collection, Switzerland (probably von der Heydt) [4], with Sam Salz, New York, sold to Louis E. Stern, New York, October 30, 1950 [5], bequest to PMA, 1963.;1. A painting with the title "Sarcelles, place du Pont" was included in the January 1925 exhibition "Oeuvres anciennes de Maurice Utrillo" at the Galerie Barbazanges. The exhibition comprised 63 works dated 1910-1914 from the legacy of Louis Libaude, Utrillo's first dealer, which were among the 100 Utrillos belonging to Libaude acquired after his death by Hodebert, successor-owner of the Galerie Barbazanges. The exhibition checklist does not illustrate this painting, nor does it give dimensions, however the title (whether "Sarcelles, place du Pont" or "Place du Pont, Sarcelles", in its current form) is a rare one: the Stern painting is the only one by this title listed in Pétridès' catalog for the earlier period (only one similar title is listed: no. 76, "Grande rue à Sarcelles", c. 1908). Therefore, the painting exhibited in 1925 was most likely the Stern painting.;2.

Reproduced in Karl Scheffler, Europäische Kunst in 19. Jahrhundert (Berlin, 1927), v. 2, p. 194, as "by permission of Galerie A.

Per provenance provided by Salz. Baron von der Heydt purchased a property in Ascona, Switzerland, in 1927, and obtained Swiss citizenship in 1937 (source: Neue Deutsche Biographie), so his may be the private collection to which Salz referred.;5.
