Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the tomb of Anna Helena von Rohr, primo voto von Nimptsch (1649–1712), daughter of an esteemed Baroque poet Friedrich von Logau. The tomb is located in the Catholic (formerly Lutheran) parish church in Przerzeczyn-Zdrój (until 1945 Bad Dirsdorf) near Niemcza in Lower Silesia. This high quality work, dating from ca. 1712–1715 and made of Przeworno marble and alabaster, has until now been virtually unknown to art historians and overlooked in scholarly studies. On the basis of a comparative analysis and other data, the design and execution of the monument was ascribed to Georg Leonhard Weber (1672–1739), a sculptor active in Świdnica, originating most probably from Franconia.
