The artwork made by a 15th-century unknown German master represents the Coronation of the Virgin, showing the Virgin kneeling between Christ holding the Cross, the Holy Spirit and God the Father. The cast formed part of the gift made in 1907 by Elsa Göschel from Nuremberg, who married the Hungarian Gábor Durkó and moved to Budapest. The cast was made by Elsa Göschel’s father, Johann, who was stone carver and cast maker in Nuremberg.The artwork was transferred from the Museum of Fine Arts to the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (former Royal Joseph University) in 1923 as a deposit.
