Notes

Friedländer, Rosenberg (1978) No.: FRSup005

The commissioner of the painting, Cardinal Albrecht of Brandenburg, bestows honor upon the patron of his family the Hohenzollers of Brandenburg. In 1516 Albrecht had the remains of the saint transferred from Magdeburg to Halle. The coat-of-arms was added in 1518 or later - in 1518 Albrecht received the red hat - together with the insignia of a cardinal.
