拍品專文

Peter Pfaffen was a clerk employed by the immensely wealthy salt merchant Kaspar Stockalper (1609-1691), whose palace, built between 1658 and 1678, was the largest private building in Switzerland at the time. Peter and Maria Pfaffen's deaths are duly recorded in Kaspar Stockalpers' account book.
