Eugen Rieffel-Müller, Frankfurt am Main, by 1925.{1} (E. & A. Silberman, New York); purchased by Dr. George Henry Alexander Clowes [1877-1958] in 1933;{2} The Clowes Fund Collection, since 1958 and on long-term loan to the Indianapolis Museum of Art since 1971 (C10057); donated to the Indianapolis Museum of Art in 2010. {1} See Austellung von Meisterwerken alter Malerie aus Privatbesitz sommer 1925, Städelsches Kunstinstitut, Frankfurt am Main, 1926, catalogue no. 67, in which the captions to the illustrations on plate V (catalogue nos. 67 and 121) are reversed. When William E. Suida published and illustrated the painting in an article "Some Bolognese Trecento Paintings in America," Critica d'arte, 1951, pp. 52-58, the caption was again printed erroneously as "57. Jacopo de Bologne, New York, Kress Collection" (rather than "57. Simone, Clowes Collection, Indianapolis). See Suida's letter to Dr. Clowes dated 28 October 1951 (IMA Clowes Collection Archive). {2} Appears on a list of paintings bought from Silberman by Dr. Clowes dated February 22, 1934 (IMA, Clowes Collection Archive).
