Josef Anton Hafner

His earliest attributed work is an altarpiece in Lindenberg im Allgäu, depicting Saint George.

Records show that, in 1732, he was paid for several works at the Church of Saint Magnus [de] in Rammingen, including some that are now lost.

Shortly after, he created a flag for the All Souls' Brotherhood in Türkheim, that depicted purgatory on one side, and was used for funerals until the early 20th century.

His first large scale work was produced in 1740; a complex series of Biblical and hagiographic scenes at Klosterbeuren Abbey [de].

His greatest work is generally considered to be the high altar picture at the Holy Ghost Parish Church [de] in Apfeldorf, showing Mary as Queen of the Rosary (1755).
