Probably originally commissioned for either the Pulci-Beraldi or Peruzzi chapel, Santa Croce, Florence. Edouard de Max [1869-1924], Paris;[1] sold 1917/1918 to (Duveen Brothers, Inc., London, New York, and Paris); sold by 1920 to Henry Goldman [1857-1937], New York, until at least 1930;[2] (Duveen Brothers, Inc., London, New York, and Paris); sold 1937 to the Samuel H. Kress Foundation, New York; gift 1939 to NGA.
[1] Born Eduard-Alexandru Max in Iasi, Moldova, Romania, he became known as Edouard de Max during his career as a film actor in France. According to a 1949 note from Duveen's Paris representative, Edward Fowles (in NGA curatorial files, and later published in his Memories of Duveen Brothers, London, 1976: 104), Max told Fowles he had inherited the painting from a great-aunt, to whom it had been given by a Pope.
