A beaker with an almost-identical engraved panel is illustrated by Paul von Lichtenberg, Glasgravuren des Biedermeier (2004), p.252, fig.270, here attributed to Franz Hansel.
The same subject is also engraved on a goblet in the Passau Glasmuseum, see Georg Höltl, Das Böhmische Glas 1700-1950, vol.2 Empire-Biedermeier, p.126, fig.170. The catalogue suggests this is engraved by August Böhm. See also lot 50 in this sale for the same subject on an amber-stained goblet. Paul von Lichtenberg, op cit, p.251 refers to two other pieces with this subject offered in Dr Fischer's auctions in Heilbronn in 1990 and 1999. A further covered beaker in the Corning Museum is illustrated by Walter Spiegl, Biedermeier-Glaser (1981), p.82, fig.81
