In 1750 the Vienna Academy for the first time set an allegorical rather than a biblical subject as the theme of its painting competition. In this interpretation by the young Maulbertsch, Minerva, the goddess of art, takes center stage. As the competition task stipulated, she represents the monarch Maria Theresa. Accompanying Minerva is the Academy, symbolized by a young woman, who is helping her judge the artistic disciplines. The Academy is thus serving the protector of art. Maulbertsch won over the jury with his dynamic poses, dramatically unfurling garments, and theatrical effects of light and shadow. He was awarded first prize and, with it, the promise of lucrative commissions in the future.
