Sylvie Buisson has confirmed the authenticity of this work.
To celebrate his fortieth birthday, Alfred-Julien Loewer (1885-1959), a prominent Swiss lawyer, commissioned Foujita to paint his portrait. The two were probably introduced by the artist’s first patron, Henri Seeholzer, also an important Swiss lawyer. Loewer, who was based in La Chaux-de-Fonds, in the canton of Neuchâtel, had assembled a significant collection, which featured works by Matisse, Vlaminck, and other modern Masters.
