? the estate of the sculptor, Prague, 1626;{Possible patrons are Karl von Liechtenstein (1569-1627) for his palace in Prague, but due to his death in 1627 never delivered; or Hans de Witte (1583-1630); or sold from De Vries´s estate (1627) per the orders of Adriaen de Vries´s heirs to a member of the Colonna von Fels family. See F. Scholten, `Bacchant, 1626, BK-2015-2´, _European Sculpture in the Rijksmuseum_, online coll. cat. Amsterdam 2022; also F. Scholten, _The Bacchant and Other Late Works by Adriaen de Vries_, Amsterdam 2016, pp. 26-44.} …; Ferdinand Joseph Reichsgraf von Tattenbach (1659-1712) and his wife Margaretha Leopoldine Gräfin Colonna von Fels (b. 1667), Schloss Sankt Martin, Sankt Martin im Innkreis, first recorded in c. 1720;{The statue does not appear in Michael Wening´s (1645-1718) engraving of the castle in the _Historico-topographica descriptio Bavariae. Das ist: Beschreibung, deß Churfürsten- und Hertzogthums Ober- und Nidern Bayrn_, vol. 2 (Das Rennt-ambt Burgkhausen), Munich 1721, p. 21. This print bears the alliance coat of arms of Von Tattenbach and Colonna. For Wening, see also G. Stetter, _Michael Wening, Leben und Werk des Kupferstechers und Topographen_, Munich 1964, pp. 34-41. Wening´s drawings in the Burghausen Rentamt, which includes Schloss Sankt Martin, were made shortly after April 1698, see ibid., p. 38. In two other engravings of the castle dating from the same period (both of which are based on Wening´s engraving), however, do in fact show the statue. The first is an engraving made before 1726, showing the castle before the fire and De Vries´s statue standing in the inner courtyard, see Christie´s catalogue (as c. 1700). The engraving bears the alliance coat of arms of Tattenbach-Colonna and as such must be dated to the period prior to the death of Leopoldine Colonna von Fels (date of death unknown). Print held in the possession of the Arco-Zinneberg family. The second is a print bearing the coat of arms of Maximilian Franz von Rheinstein und Tattenbach and his wife, Maria Charlotte Felicitas von Törring-Jettenbach. This print shows the situation after 1726, with the rebuilt castle as it looked after the fire of that same year. The print is drawn and engraved by one `Puchholtzer´ (inscription on print), possibly Carl Joseph Puchholber, to be dated before 1762, the year in which both Count Maximilian and his wife died (see RP-P-2015-31). See F. Scholten, _The Bacchant and Other Late Works by Adriaen de Vries_, Amsterdam 2016 and F. Scholten, `The Amsterdam Ivories of Francis van Bossuit (1635-1692): Reception and Transformation in the Eighteenth Century´, in C. van Eck (ed.), _Idols and Museum Pieces: The Nature of Sculpture, its Historiography and Exhibition History, 1640-1880_, Berlin/Boston/Paris 2017, pp. 35-47, esp. figs. 28, 31.
