This early inside interior of the Holy Grave Church in Jerusalem was executed in 1840s . On the base of comparison of our painting with identical view by H.Sattler (with another dimensions, but with the same quality and similar composition ) , situated in Salzburg Museumwe came to conclusion , that our view is second author`s version of the painting in Salzburg. Additionaly it`s known, that numerous Sattlers works are unsigned by the artist and he repainted his best and most famous works for noble private customers .
