Research findings

Since it is unclear how, when, and from whom Hans Alfred Wetzlar acquired this painting, its provenance is uncertain. This painting was part of his collection until 1943.

H.A.Wetzlar sometimes helped Jewish relations by buying objects from them, paying in cash. Because this painting was donated to rather than acquired by a museum the situation is less alarming.
