In The Geologist, how is the Provenance discussed?
The provenance of the painting is not fully documented. The painting was in the possession of W. Schauß in New York since 1863. Then it came to the possession of Fritz Reimann in Elberfeld through the Heinemann Gallery in Munich. With the death of Reimann in 1913, it came through his legacy to the collection of the Von der Heydt Museum.
