Provenance

Notes

Collected By: Boniface Wimmer, O.S.B. King Ludwig I of Bavaria began sending paintings and artwork to Boniface Wimmer in 1853. This work is assumed to be one of the 300 paintings sent during the 1850's. When Wimmer wrote to King Ludwig asking him for artwork to decorate the monastery, churches and to use in the instruction of art King Ludwig ordered Joseph Mueller to send paintings through the Ludwigmissionsverein which was administered by Pius Reiser. It is also assumed that many of these works were from the many artworks confiscated from churches and monasteries by Napoleon and then given over to local princes and kings. It is rumored that over 10,000 such artifacts were assembled in Munich alone, and assumed the 300 sent to Saint Vincent came from this group. Today, there are slightly less than 200 such paintings at Saint Vincent. Some were destroyed, and others were sent to foundations established by Saint Vincent.
