With Doisneau's signature, in ink, on recto.
From Philippe Salaun (Doisneau''s printer); to the present owner in 2005. While Steinberg was living in Paris, he took it upon himself to paint the tiles beside his tub. The landlord was apparently so incensed at the defacement of his property he immediately evicted the artist.
