Provenance:
Possibly Ernestine Burdel Dubosc, France, by descent to [1]; Albert Dubosc [1874-1956], Saint Adresse, France, until May 5, 1941, consigned to [2]; (Hector Brame Gallery, Paris, May 5, 1941-October 20, 1952, sold to [2]); (Maynard Walker Gallery, New York, October 20, 1952-January 1956, sold to); Cincinnati Art Museum, January 1956-present. Notes: [1] Paul Brame of the Hector Brame Gallery, Paris, indicated in a letter of June 30, 1954, to New York dealer Maynard Walker that he acquired the painting from a private collector living in the south of France who had inherited it from his mother. Recent correspondence with the gallery, now Brame & Lorenceau, has identified the former owner to be Albert Dubosc of Saint Adresse, near Le Havre. The Ville de Havre archives holds a copy of Albert Dubosc's birth certificate, which names Ernestine Burdel as his mother. Although Dubosc was from Saint Adresse, there is a possibility he was a living in the south of France at the time he consigned the painting to Hector Brame.
