The painting was acquired by Hugo Salm in 1924 and from at least 1933 it was in South America. It then came onto the Berlin art market and was bought by a private collector. In 1960 the Lottery Society of Berlin bought it for the Nationalgalerie, which has exhibited it in the Knobelsdorff wing of Schloss Charlottenburg (1986-2001) and in the Friedrich room of the Alte Nationalgalerie (since 2001).
