The cast is a copy of the Gothic console of the exterior wall of the Marienkirche in Königsberg in Bayern. The cast formed part of the gift made in 1907 by Elsa Göschel from Nuremberg, who married the Hungarian Gábor Durkó and moved to Budapest. The cast was made by Elsa Göschel’s father, Johann, who was stone carver and cast maker in Nuremberg. Probably lost during World War II, whereabouts are unknown.
