Object history

Provenance:

Residence of the della Francesca family, Sansepolcro.
Senator Giovanni Battista Collacchioni, Palazzo Graziani (formerly della Francesca family residence), Sansepolcro, by 1886.
Transferred to the family's country residence, Villa Cattani, near Sansepolcro, by 1892.
Marco Collacchioni, by inheritance, 1895.
Returned to Palazzo Graziani, Sansepolcro, by 1902.
Purchased by Isabella Stewart Gardner from the dealer Elia Volpi, Florence, for 200,000 lire ($40,000) through the painter Joseph Lindon Smith (1863-1950) on 11 December 1906.
Due to the high cost of import duties, this fresco remained in Europe until 1908 in the care of Mrs. Thomas Lincoln Chadbourne (Emily R. Crane, 1871-1964). Its arrival in Boston was delayed further by a customs dispute.
Entered Isabella Stewart Gardner's collection in 1908.
