Additional Text according to Settlement, June 2011:
« Dr. Oskar Reichel (1869–1943) was a doctor, merchant and art collector. After 1938, he had to give up the painting due to his persecution as a Jew. Rudolf Leopold acquired the work in 1980 at the Dorotheum, Vienna, and contributed it to the Leopold Museum-Privatstiftung in 1994.
Since the work is undoubtedly the property of the Leopold Museum-Privatstiftung, but was apparently seized from Oskar Reichel, it was important to the Leopold Museum to find a joint solution in the sense of a fair and just procedure with the legal successor to Oskar Reichel. »
