Summary/Abstract: This painting is invaluable in the general picture of sacral art in Latvia. In 1936 the picture was described by a priest and art historian Kazimirs Jasens. He indicates that the painting is located in the chapel at Jelgava Roman Catholic graveyard. The artefact was considered to be destroyed during World War II, but luckily it was found in 2013 far away from its original place, in Kaunata, Southeast Latvia.
