From Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía:
There is a curious story behind this picture, painted during one of two short stays in Madrid between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries. Having shown the painting at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid in 1901 where it received only an honourable mention, Pablo Picasso decided not to pick the painting up when the event closed. Time passed, and some decades later the picture was found and rescued from its oblivion by Enrique Lafuente Ferrari, the director from 1954 of what was then called the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo, so the painting became part of the State collections.
