Research findings
This painting was part of the collection confiscated from J. Hedeman.
This painting was part of a collection placed by a Jewish collector, J. Hedeman, in a bank safe in Amsterdam at the start of the war. The collection was subsequently transferred to Lippmann, Rosenthal & Co, the bank which carried out the theft of Jewish assets, where it was labelled, Liro no. L 21639/94a. A restoration report states that the number appeared on the reverse of the painting but is no longer present. With the number it is possible to state definitively that this is the same work.
