According to the artist signature on antique postcards, the famous Guardian Angel painting was originally created by H. Zabateri (pseudonym of artist Hans Zatzka.) The Guardian Angel image became very famous when art prints were published in the USA under the artist name of Lindberg or Lindbergh. No one knows Lindberg's first name and it seems to be the only painting for which he or she is known. It's more likely that Lindberg was merely involved with creating the lithograph templates. I doubt there was an actual painting by Lindberg anywhere. Otto A Stemler did the same thing: he converted many popular black and white engravings & illustrations from the 1800's and turned them into beautiful full-color lithograph art prints. Stemler's art prints of the life of Jesus are still very popular today. So I suspect Lindberg's story is similar. The inspired work of Otto Stemler and Lindberg are still copied and recreated by modern artists. -- Artist is Hans Zatzka Zabateri 1859-1945, Austria, attributed to Lindbergh
