Buchinger Family Tree

May 28, 1729
Not on view
On loan to The Met
This work of art is currently on loan to the museum.
This family tree shows off Buchinger’s precision with a quill and his adeptness in creating elaborate cutouts. It also triumphantly announces Buchinger’s lawful marriage to four wives in three countries and notes his fourteen children, born between 1702 and 1729 in places as disparate as Oltenburgh (Oldenburg), Nottingham, Zurich, London, Belfast, Cork, and Dublin, among others (see image).
