Death of Cleopatra

before 1685 (?) | Ignaz Elhafen

The Innsbruck master Ignaz Elhafen specialized in detailed, small-format reliefs made from ivory and hardwoods, based on various print models. He was active in Vienna, primarily for the Prince of Liechtenstein. A direct connection to imperial court patronage is not documented. His works likely entered the imperial collections as gifts or purchases.
