Konig was advised in his collecting by Dr. Alfred Stix, director of the Albertina Museum, Vienna. During the 1920s he sold a large part of his collection to collector Johann Torok.These drawings, perhaps including the present example, then passed through the sales of the Torok collection in New York in 1928 and in 1933. Among them were drawings now in the collection of the Morgan Library and Museum, New York.
