In 1895, Brožík was selected by the Emperor of Austria to paint this picture which should commemorate the foundation of the house of Habsburg-Lorraine which began with the marriage, here portrayed, of Maria Theresa to Francis of Lorraine in 1736. Today, this painting is kept at the Austrian Gallery Belvedere in Vienna (No. 2768a–b). A graphic image used as an explanation of the painting is kept at the Picture Archives and Graphics Depart- ment of the Austrian National Library in Vienna (No. Pk 353, 67). 25 For more on Germ, see: Eva Malnarič-Gaspan, Slikar Josip Germ [Painter Josip Germ], in: Zbor- nik za umetnostno zgodovino, n.v.
