New York City (painting)
The Guardian states that the painting was first shown at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City in 1945. The Netherlands Institute for Art History has no record of  this exhibition, and says that the painting was first shown at the Valentine Gallery in New York City in 1946 for about three weeks.  The  estate of Piet Mondrian in New York City owned the painting until they sold it to the city's Sidney Janis Gallery in 1958.  It was then briefly in the hands of Galerie Beyeler in Basel, Switzerland, in 1980. Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen  bought it later that same year.
