Present Whereabouts Unknown
Provenance:
Sale, Blanchard’s Auction Service, 1891 Morley-Potsdam Road, Potsdam, NY 13676 January 26, 2024, Lot 308.
The picture is clearly dated 1936 and may well be turn out to be the portrait of Mrs Charles Trippe which Muller-Ury painted before his departure for Europe in the summer of that year. Unfortunately there are no helpful makings on the stretcher.
