What an interesting coincidence! I'm currently reading "Gustav Klimt - The Biography" by Alfred Weidinger and Mona Horncastle. I have just come to the passage that deals with the portrait of William R. Dowoonah. It says: "... where it is today, we do not know."

Well, I'd say that mystery is solved!

Perhaps they needed the money? Who knows. I would do whatever it took to hang onto it, but you never know what their circumstances were
