From the Rijksmuseum record

This archaic pair of lions, with two others (now in the Hermitage, Saint Petersburg), originally supported a bronze baptismal font in the monastic church of Bordesholm in northern Germany. The coats of arms are those of the patrons who commissioned the font, the wealthy knight Wolfgang Pogwisch and his wife. They made generous donations towards the expansion and renovation of the church in 1490-1520.
