It came from the traveling exhibition An Artistic Friendship: Beauford Delaney and Lawrence Calcagno, which originated at the Palmer Museum of Art (Pennsylvania State University) in February 2001.
Anita Shapolsky has exhibited works by Lawrence Calcagno for many years. She purchased this Beauford Delaney work while it was in a joint exhibition with Lawrence Calcagno works at her gallery.
She commented on Beauford's art as follows:
"From the works that I have seen, I feel that they are lyrical, colorfield abstractions."
Focus on Abstract Gems will be on display through April 7, 2018.

A description of the exhibition on the gallery Web site indicates the following:
Our charming exhibit of small paintings, paper pieces, and sculptures are worth the trip. These works adhere to the gallery’s focus of abstract expressionist style, but offers an eclectic variety of genre, medium and eras. It exposes rare drawings, prints, photographs and paintings from some of the most significant artists of the 1950’s and 1960’s.
Among the works on paper is Beauford's Untitled (Ibiza).
