When sold in 1980, the painting was quite damaged and discolored.

A possible studio work. I'm sure that this work was also offered for sale by Sotheby's New York on June 11, 1981, lot #91. The illustration there suggests that the picture was quite abraded. The measurements given there were 11.4 x 15.5, but the picture is identical.
