Research findings
There is no, or insufficient provenance information known about this object from the period 1933-1945. After investigation, no sources have been found to date that can provide information to complete its provenance in the period. Therefore, no conclusions can be made regarding possible suspicious provenance or involuntary loss of ownership.
The provenance research is inconclusive: it is not known how, when or under what circumstances A.J. Boer (Kunsthandel Oudt Holland, The Hague) acquired this painting. Nor is it known how, when or under what circumstances Kunsthandel P.A. Scheen, The Hague, acquired this painting. Nor is it clear how or when W.F. Goerz, The Hague, acquired this painting. What is certain is that Goerz sold the painting during the war on an unknown date to art dealer Georg Paffrath, Düsseldorf.
