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
- This investigation records a sale from Modigliani in 1915 for USD 22 to an Argentine businessman, then to a Japanese collector for USD 1,780. Those figures are printed as given.
- Knoedler Gallery, New York, in the 1960s.
- Sellin Collection, New York (acquired in the 1960s from Knoedler for USD 42,000, as printed).

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