He was active in Paris during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. [5] At the beginning of World War I, France named Heilbronner, a German citizen, an enemy alien. The French government confiscated his collection and sold most of it in a series of auctions as reparations for war damages, according to the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. This window was sold in the seventh sale.; "Grand Vitrail peint en couleurs, représentant un saint supplicié. Il est attaché à une roue et martyrisé par deux personnages." Hôtel Drouot, Sequestre Raoul Heilbronner: Catalogue des Objets d'art et de Curiosité Principalement des XVIe et XVIIIe siècles: Collections de M. Raoul Heilbronner, sale catalogue (Paris, 22 -23 June 1922), p. 8, lot 33.\n [6] Ruegg wrongly stated that the window came from the collection of Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc. See February 7, 1928 letter from E. Ruegg to Frank Jewett Mathew, Jr. in the curatorial file; also see Pastan and Shepard, "The Torture of Saint George Medallion from Chartres Cathedral in Princeton," 17-18.\n [7] Mather purchased the window September 21, 1923 with the intention of consigning it to the Museum and charging it to the Trumbull-Prime fund.
