[1] Kleinberger Galleries, NY, 1917-1918, as a work of the Sicilian School. This is probably the source of the brittle paper label pasted on the back: #103, Sicilian Painter, late 15th century; followed by a description and the information that the painting was once in the collection of Arthur Hughes.
