It was placed in front of the coffin at the funeral and then ad vitam æternam in the church where the funeral took place.

Private advisor to the Prince of Tour et Taxis and later Postmaster General, he was also Lord of Lohmar and Oen. Provenance : - Former private collection in Monaco Book consulted : - J.
