The noble family of Heygendorff traces back to Karoline Jagemann von Heygendorff (1777-1848), one of the most important tragic actresses and singers of her time, theater director and opera director. In 1801, she became the mistress of Duke (since 1815 Grand Duke) Carl August von Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach, who appointed her Freifrau von Heygendorff in 1809. Her son Karl (1806-1895), begotten by the Grand Duke, was awarded the hereditary noble title of Heygendorff in the same year. In 1859, the daughter Marie von Heygendorff (1837-1913) married Philipp Leo von Nauendorff (1825-1902). Provenance: Likely made on the occasion of the wedding of Philipp Leo von Nauendorff and Marie Therese von Heygendorff in 1859; since then in the possession of the Nauendorff family.
