Provenance:The collection of Louis Schapiro
Louis Schapiro (1883-1947) was a patron of the arts and a prolific collector of modern art from the early 1900s until his death in 1947. He supported and encouraged many young artists and acquired their works in the United States and during trips to Europe. His collection was particularly orientated towards artists from Eastern and Central Europe, Russia and the Ukraine. Many of the artists like David Burliuk, Abraham Walkowitz, Mané-Katz, Chaim Gross, and N. Vasilieff were visitors to Loius Schapiro’s home at Glenledge Cottage in Pigeon Cove, Massachusetts. During his lifetime, he also made a number of donations to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the Institute of Modern Art in Boston, as well as the Kalamazoo Institute of Art. His so-called “Modern Art Collection” given to Brandeis University, was one of the founding collections which eventually formed the Rose Art Museum.
Condition: Some visible restauration especially around the head of the clarinetist and the arm and the volionist.
