Bonaventure Ostendarp and Raphael Pfisterer of the Order of St. Benedict at Saint Anselm College, Goffstown, New Hampshire.

Ostendorp and Pfister from the original "Life of the Virgin" series in the Benedictine Abbey of Emmaus in Prague, Czech Republic.

The original series was created under the direction of Desiderius Lenz, Gabriel Wuger, and Lukas Steiner between 1880 and 1887 and was subsequently destroyed by fire in 1945, during World War II.

In the summer of 1996 they were removed, and were publicly auctioned December 7, 1996 where they were purchased by someone on behalf of the SSPX's Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church (Carnegie, Pennsylvania).

For their preservation and eventual installation at Our Lady of Fatima, a support frame was built for each and stretched with fresh canvas to which the mural canvases were then adhered with "rabbit skin" glue, a natural adhesive.

[5] With the congregation of Our Lady of Fatima relocating to St. James Church (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) in late 2014/early 2015, the murals were again available for purchase at a price of "$150,000 or best offer for the set".
