AN AUSTRIAN SILVERED-METAL AND GILT-COPPER LAMP OR INCENSE-BURNER IN THE FORM OF A FLAMING HEART
1732
Inscribed extensively in Latin to both sides, supported by a metal chain
12 in. (30.5 cm.) high, the heart

Note du spécialiste

The Latin inscriptions seem to suggest that this heart was commissioned by a canon, August Carl Freund, who was born on the 27th February 1682 in Kremsegg in Austria, for his 50th birthday in 1732 in Waldhausen, Austria.
