专家说明

Wanda de Guébriant has confirmed the authenticity of this work.

The present work is being offered for sale pursuant to an agreement between the consignor and the heirs of Prof. Dr. Curt Glaser. This resolves any dispute over ownership of the work and title will pass to the buyer.

Prof. Dr. Curt Glaser (1879-1943) was a renowned art historian and a prominent figure in the artistic and cultural milieu of Berlin in the early decades of the 20th century. Appointed Director of the State Art Library in 1924, he was dismissed by the Nazi government in 1933, and forced to flee the country, auctioning most of his art to finance his emigration. He left Berlin for Switzerland via Paris in June 1933, before finally settling in the United States with his second wife Maria (née Milch) in 1941.
