The painting was confiscated by the Nazis in 1938. Its owners, Otto and Dora Rothschild of Munich, fled to the United States in 1940. After the war, the painting reached the Allies’ Munich Central Collecting Point and in 1952 was sent by the Jewish Restitution Successor Organization (JRSO) to the Bezalel National Museum, the Israel Museum’s precursor.
It was restituted in 2007 to the owner’s granddaughter, Hazel Stein, who has been lending it to the Israel Museum since that time.
