Catalogue numbers

Legal note on MR: This investigation has not had access to MR’s catalogue raisonné; all research here is based on open sources, publications and exhibitions. By no means has that catalogue been copied at any point. Modigliani Project and Modigliani Initiative are marked YES when the work is published or otherwise recorded by those projects, even if no catalogue number is assigned; otherwise the field is marked ?.

Provenance

1. Leopold Zborowski
2. Löeb Collection. Paris
3. Musée de Montmartre, Paris
4. Private Collection?
5. Musée de Montmarte? (this investigation has not been able to find an actual reference to the work in the museum and they dont reply to my emails)

The sequence follows the published museum, sale, and catalogue record in this investigation. Gaps and uncertain transfers are marked as such.

Selected bibliography

• Parisot mention it is included by Pfannstiel, but no in his CR (maybe in a later certificate or similar ?)
• Parisot mention it is included by Lanthemann, but no in his CR (maybe in a later certificate or in the publication made once Lanthemann was dead ?)¹
