Griggs, B.A. 1896, Fund | 2011.75.1 | Italian, Rome | 17th–18th century | Sculpture | The original provenance of this bronze is unknown, but it was clearly an expensive commission - judging from its size and the quality of its casting, chasing, and gilding - intended for an altar rather than for private devotion. It is said to have come from the collection of the Princes Chigi in Rome, descendants of the family from which Pope Alexander VII derived, prominent landowners in the Sienese territories in Tuscany and at Ariccia near Rome, and perhaps the greatest of Bernini's major patrons. In all probability it was part of a commission intended from the first for one of their benefices. From the Chigi, the bronze was sold to a private collection in Germany. It was acquired there by Alex Wengraf, Ltd., London, who sold it to Dr. Arthur Sackler. It is now being offered at auction (Sotheby's, New York, January 29, 2010, lot 448) by the Arthur Sackler Foundation. |

One is a small copper, the other, with somewhat similar scenery, a large canvas, and the third its pendant. The patron was a military engineer and collector from Zürich. He was elected a counselor of Zürich in 1648, and at the beginning of 1650 was sent as an envoy on a short military mission to Venice. He did not go to Rome. What brought him in touch with Claude is not known. In Italian he signed his name 'Verdmiller', Claude's spelling is a correct phonetic rendering. Werdmüller, an amateur painter himself, increased his inherited collection, for instance, later he patronized the Dutch landscape painter Jan Hackaert (1629- c. 1699). The greater part of the collection was dispersed at the beginning of the 18th century and passed into foreign countries. The inventory of 1789 contains no Claude, but still has a few paintings of Asselyn, Salvator, Teniers, etc" (Röthlisberger 1961, Vol. I, p. 290).;Bibliography;Alan Shestack, ed., Yale University Art Gallery Selections (New Haven, Conn.: Yale University Art Gallery, 1983), 34–35, ill. |

Nonetheless, the work has bene well known and well published since its appearance in London in 1969, which suggest that any improprieties in its history are likely to have been noted by now.;Bibliography;Paintings by old masters, exh. cat.

Although it left Italy in the eighteenth century, it belonged to the Van Diemen Gallery in Berlin by 1930. Clearly it was acquired under legitimate circumstances by the Van Diemen Gallery, but it has not been possible to determine when or to whom it was sold by them. The Van Diemen Gallery relocated from Berlin to New York before 1935, becoming Van Diemen Lillienfeld. There is every reason to imagine that this painting presents no improprieties of provenance, but we have no hard proof of that. The present owner of the Van Diemen Lillienfeld stock cards, which in any event go back only to 1945, can find no mention of this painting among them.;Paul Graupe Collection, Berlin, 25 January 1935 (sale of Van Diemen Gallery Collection, Berlin, Vanni's Madonna della Pappa not included).;Bibliography;Gugielmo Della Valle, Lettere Sanesi, 3 (Rome: Salomoni, 1786), 351.;Ulrich Thieme et al., Allgemeines Lexikon der bildenden Künstler von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart, 34 (Leipzig, Germany: W.

Hanna, Jr., Class of 1913, Fund | 2011.136.1 | French | 19th century | Paintings | The painting stayed in the artist’s studio, located at 42 rue de La-Ville-l’Evêque in Paris until at least 1832 when it was shown in another charity exhibition. After this, The Retreat of Napoleon’s Army from Russia in 1812 disappeared, and was known only through a lithograph published in 1833 and an 1844 engraving by Edouard-Henri Girardet, of which Yale owns a fine version (1993.1.189). Having been lost for over a century and a half, the painting was discovered by a private collector when cleaning out his basement in the Ile Saint-Louis, Paris, around 1986.
