The present cast is a very beautiful cast made during the artist's lifetime by the foundry Mayr; Munich. Wilhelm Krieger always received the raw casting which he then chased and patinated himself.

We would like to thank Dr. Martin Schmidt-Magin; Kronberg; for the oral confirmation of authenticity based on the original.
