Following the Degenerate Art exhibition the German dealer Ferdinand Möller, one of the four appointed to dispose of the confiscated art, exchanged Purim for other artwork.(3) The Berlin collector and gallery owner Dr. Kurt Feldhäusser next acquired the painting, probably directly from Möller. Although German citizens were prohibited by law from buying “degenerate art,” in practice the ban was often ignored. Feldhäusser, in fact, seems to have made a specialty of acquiring Nazi-condemned art from German museums, especially works by Chagall and by Expressionist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. After Feldhäusser died in a bombing raid on Frankfurt in 1944, Purim was brought to the United States by his mother, Marie Luisa. She sold it through a New York dealer, Erhard Weyhe, to New York collector Louis E. Stern on October 11, 1949. (English)
