The unnamed museum staffer, a 51-year-old man who worked in technical service, drilled two holes into a wall in an otherwise empty hallway in order to put up the piece.
The artwork was not described with the exception of its dimensions, 23.6 inches by 47.2 inches, according to the local Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper. The incident occurred in February but was only made public Monday, according to the Guardian. The painting was not up for long before being discovered and removed.
“The supervisors notice something like this immediately,” museum spokesperson Tine Nehler told the Zeitung, as translated by Google.“The employee considers himself as an artist and most likely saw his role in the museum’s installation team as a day job to support his true calling,” a museum spokesperson told the Guardian.
