Strauss, 32, rue de Lévis. Labels on the verso of the stretcher, which are reproduced in the 1992 sale catalogue, Drouot Montaigne, Paris, Importants Tableaux des XIXe et XXe siècles under the multi-page entry for this painting, mistakenly identify it as no. 29 (Au-dessus du gouffre) of the Vente Gauguin. The latter painting Wildenstein, 1964, catalogue raisonné no. 282 and Wildenstein, 2002, catalogue raisonné no. 310 passed from this sale via the collection of Comte Guy de Cholet directly to the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris. The merit of the 1992 Drouot Montaigne sale catalogue rests on its facsimile reproduction of the checklist for the 1891 Vente Gauguin catalogue.;{2} Despite the fact that a 1902 letter from Monfreid to Gauguin cited in Wildenstein, 1964, p. 138 doubts Vollard's ownership of this painting, new research for the Ambroise Vollard: Patron of the Avant-Garde exhibition, jointly organized by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, New York, The Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, and the Musée dOrsay, Paris, France, confirms that it passed through Vollard's hands early on.;{3} See Paul Gauguin, 1848-1903, Kunsthalle Basel, July-August 1928, catalogue no. 53, as lent by Dr. G. Viau, Paris. There are also four Collection George Viau labels on the stretcher citing former exhibitions this painting was included in.;{4} See Catalogue des Tableaux Modernes composant la Collection de M. Georges (sic) Viau, Hôtel Drouot, Paris, 11 December 1942, lot.

He opened the Galerie Paul Pétrides in Paris in 1934, but became an active collaborationist dealer during the war. After the war, he reopened his Paris gallery, currently run by his son, Gilbert. Correspondence with the latter in September 2003 indicates that his gallery's records regarding international sales in the 1950s are incomplete. The Monet scholar, John House, has suggested that there would have been no market for such a loosely painted Monet until the 1950s, and speculates that this canvas may have remained at Giverny throughout the war, and sold - to Pétrides? - in the 1950s.

(It was not purchased out of the auction of Baron Marczell de Nêmes' collection in 1913, as is sometimes stated.);{8} The collection of Mór Lipót Herzog was, for the most part, distributed between his three children: András Herzog, Erzsébet Herzog (then already married to Alfonz Weiss), and István Herzog. This painting was included in the exhibition Honderd Jaar Fransche Kunst, Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, 1938, catalogue no. 122a, as lent by" Baron A. Herzog, Budapest." He lent five paintings to this exhibition and all were returned to him upon its closing. Following the exhibition, this painting, along with other items in the Herzog collection were stored by the owners in the cellars of the Labor Company at Budafok, outside Budapest. For the history of the Herzog collection, see Lászlo Mravik, "Sacco Di Budapest": Depredation of Hungary, 1938-1949, 1998, p. 305. {9} A document in the Hungarian National Archives (K 643-1944-201, Fol. 6) states that the painting was found in 1944 by the State Security Police in the Budafok laboratory, copy in IMA Provenance file (1998.167). The seized collection may have been offered to the Eichmann Sonderkommando at its headquarters in the Hotel Majestic in Budapest, if so, the Gauguin painting was among the unwanted materials and was transferred to the Museum of Fine Arts by the State Security Police for safekeeping on 20 May 1944. {10} For a report dated 1 June 1945 by Thomas Bogyay, who accompanied Czanky to Grassau, see National Archives and Records Administration, RG260 OMGUS: Records of the Central Collecting Points ("Ardelia Hall Collection"): Munich Central Collecting Point, Restitution Research Records, Investigations by Foreign Representatives: France, Microfilm M1946, roll 134 (also available at Fold3.com, http://www.fold3.com/image/270141956, retrieved 22 July 2014).;{11} For the receipt issued to Howe upon his arrival with the paintings from Grassau, see National Archives and Records Administration, RG260 OMGUS: Records of the Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives (MFAA) Section of the Preparations and Restitution Branch, Claims of Cultural Property Removed by German Forces, Bavaria Decl.

Upon close inspection, the stretcher bears the partially effaced remnants of the Munich no. 99/25).;{13} András Herzog was sent to a labor camp in 1942 and never returned. Because he had only under-age heirs, the paintings were restituted to his former wife Maria Izabella Parravicini, divorced from András Herzog in 1939 and remarried to Count Istvan Bethlen, Jr. Police records of a smuggling prosecution in 1949 detail the facts of the restitution and the role of Dr. Oppler. See footnote 14 below.;{14} The 1949 police investigation against the wife of István Herzog claimed that proper export licenses had not been procured for works in the Herzog collection, including those in possession of Maria Izabella Parravicini. While this may have been the case for a number of the Herzog pictures, Gauguin's Still Life with Profile of Laval had been granted permission for export, see copies of papers from the Hungarian National Archives (K 726-1948-732) in IMA Provenance file (1998.167). This is corroborated by the presence of an export stamp bearing the Hungarian national crest on the verso of the canvas. The police investigation materials identify Donáth as an art dealer who left Hungary for Zurich in 1948.;{15} See footnote 1 above. |

Lockton, Indianapolis, Indiana, given to the Indianapolis Museum of Art in 1970.;{1} François Daulte, compiler of a prospective catalogue raisonné of Renoirs paintings, informed Kurt F. Pantzer, Indianapolis, of the early provenance of this painting in correspondence dated 11 January 1971 (IMA Historical File 70.80). Daulte indicates that the painting was sold in Paris on 17 April 1896, lot 86), where it was acquired by Durand-Ruel, who subsequently sold it to Behrens on 14 December 1896. A Drouot auction catalogue for this date has not been located, suggesting that the date may be in error.;{2} Although Daulte identifies the owner as Gustave Behrens and his widow as Esther Behrens, the owner was probably Theodor Behrens, an important collector of German and French nineteenth-century art in Hamburg. No archival documentation on Theodor Behrens collection survives, see Ulrich Luckhardt, Eduard L. Behrens und Theodor E. Behrens: Sammeln moderner Kunst in zwei Generationen, in Ulrich Luckhardt and Uwe M. Schneede, eds., Private Schätze: über das Sammeln von Kunst in Hamburg bis 1933, Hamburg, 2001, p. 37, although Luckhardt identifies some paintings formerly in the Behrens collection including other paintings by Renoir.;{3} Daulte notes that Esther Behrens sold the painting to Moser in the 1930s, although the recent publication by Guy-Patrice and Michel Dauberville, Renoir: catalogue raisonné des Tableaux, Pastels, Dessins et Aquarelles, Paris, volume 1, 2007, catalogue no. 31, gives the date of transfer as 1924. Moser, who fled the Nazis, via Holland, arrived in New York in 1940.;{4} The loan is noted in correspondence, dated 31 October 1968, from Richard C. Lockton to François Daulte (IMA Historical File 70.80).;{5} Sotheby, Parke Bernet, New York, Impressionist and modern paintings and drawings, 14 October 1965, lot 115 (illustration) as property of the heirs of Mrs. Maria Moser, New York. |
