Le cerf porte sur le col une marque de propriétaire VM pour Ferdinand von Miller (1813-1887) sculpteur et fondeur bavarois originaire de Aichach en Haute-Bavière. Après une formation à l’académie des beaux-arts de Munich puis de Paris, il revient à Munich où il intègre la fonderie royale dont il devient le directeur puis le propriétaire en 1873. Son œuvre majeure est le colosse de bronze ‘Bavaria’ qui trône sur la Theresienwiese à Munich.
