The caption was given as "Johann Wilhelm Stadler", a different composer altogether (though contemporary). The dates were correct. I have checked the portrait with several sources and it does appear to be of the abbé Stadler.
[I am also altering 'Abbot Stadler' to abbé Stadler as he wasn't an abbot in the normal English sense of the word. Add. In fact he was an 'Abbot' at one point in his career, though he is normally styled 'abbé' in the sense of an ordained priest (cf. abbé Liszt)] Ioan_Dyfrig (talk) 13:14, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
