Summary/Abstract: The article discusses a 17th century sculpture once held in the Pärnu Museum, and a model made of it and sent to Tartu in the 19th century. Both have perished, but the cover letter for the model contains valuable information about the appearance and discovery of the original artefact. The model was commissioned by a local bibliophile, Mihkel Jürgens, whose interest in historical stone sculptures was unusual for an Estonian.
