Object history
  • Madame Fantin-Latour;
  • sold by 1929 to (Tempelaere, Paris). David David-Weill [1871-1952], Neuilly-sur-Seine, by 1936.[1] (Robert Schmidt, Paris);
  • sold June 1971 to Mr. and Mrs. Paul Mellon, Upperville, Virginia;
  • gift 1995 to NGA.
[1] The painting was lent by David-Weill to the 1936 exhibition of Fantin-Latour's work held in Grenoble. During World War II the painting was confiscated by the Nazi Einsatzstab Reichsleiter Rosenberg (ERR) from the David-Weill collection in France, and recovered at Alt Aussee. The records of the Munich Central Collecting Point indicate that the painting was restituted to France on 11 July 1946, with David-Weill as the presumed owner (Munich property card #181/6; French Receipt for Cultural Objects no. 9A, item no. 77; copies in NGA curatorial files). The painting was returned to the David-Weill family in September 1946 (see correspondence from the French Ministere des Affaires Étrangeres in NGA curatorial files). David-Weill was president of the Conseil artistique de la Réunion des Musées Nationaux. His claim for paintings not recovered after the war is published in the Répertoire des biens spoliés en France durant la guerre 1939–1945, Groupe français du conseil de controle, 1947.
