| Object history | Provenance: King Frederick VI of Denmark acquired the busts in 1815 while attending the Congress of Vienna, from collector Johann Ferdinand von Schönfeld, who had purchased them at a 1782 auction of Emperor Rudolf II’s collection at Prague Castle in Prague. Though once speculated to belong to Tycho Brahe, who worked under and was thought to have presented these to Rudolf II’s court in 1598, later studies dismissed this, suggesting instead they were diplomatic gifts to the imperial court.[1] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
