Johann Michael Rottmayr's contemporaries

A work made of oil on canvas.
The image displays three figures. The central figure is seated and supported by the other two. The central figure has wavy dark hair, eyes closed, and wears a robe with a cross. The figure on the left looks serene, while the one on the right holds onto the cross. The background is sketchy with dark and light contrast, possibly depicting a dimly lit or nighttime setting with visible wooden beams.

A work made of ink on paper.
The image depicts a woman seated with a child in her lap. The woman looks down at the child, who has curly hair. Both figures are intricately drawn in a detailed line drawing style. The woman wears a headdress and flowing garment, holding a cross-topped staff. The child clutches her arm. Surrounding them are cloud-like forms and cherubic figures with wings, some holding rosary beads. In the background, more clouds and angelic faces are sketched.

The works in this room are listed below.
