The composition of the present painting, which seems to date from the period around 1738/40, largely corresponds with a Holy Family by Troger in a Viennese private collection (ex Seitenstetten Monastery, see J. Kronbichler, no. G 71), which, however, shows the Virgin Mary as a three-quarter-length figure. Moreover, our painting also compares to a Virgin Mary with the Sleeping Christ Child in Herzogenburg Monastery (see J. Kronbichler, no. G 73), in which the Child is very similar, in fact almost identical, to that in the present composition.
