Kändler's work report states that he created the model for Maria Immaculata in July 1738 "in the same size as was to date used for the apostles…". The first version of the Maria Immaculata was originally intended for the widow of the Austrian emperor, Wilhelmine-Amalia (1672-1742), and was supposed to be delivered with the 12 apostles and an altar set. However, as Kändler was kept busy by the Swan Service for Count Brühl, the widow died in the meantime so that Maria Immaculata was instead delivered to Count Brühl. A second polychromed copy went to Prince Elector Clemens August of Cologne, while a third unpainted one remained at the Dresden court.
