A Comparison of Vanitas Still Life in Italian, French and Dutch 17th Century Environment and Searching for Influences on Czech School
Pourová, Kristina ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Jarošová, Markéta (referee)
My diploma thesis concerns itself with the depiction of the still life, in particular the type known as "vanitas", symbolizing the transience of human life. I focus on several artists working in Italy, France and Netherlands during the 17th century - Salvator Rosa, Simon Renard de Saint Andre, Jan Davidsz de Heem, and Nicolaes van Verendael - and explore their influence on the Czech artists Johann Adalbert Angermeyer, Jan Kaspar Hirschely, and Vaclav Vavrinec Reiner, who dealt with the same topic.
Mantegna's oculus and its reflection in Lombardy region in sixteenth century
Pourová, Kristina ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Jarošová, Markéta (referee)
This work is focused on the early Renaissance artist Andrea Mantegna and his legacy for future generations. Specifically, I want to deal with his innovative approach in using illusionist ceiling frescoes. I would like to point out and bring near how Mantegna's style was differed from his predecessors and where he drew inspiration. Subsequently, I want to focus on direct followers of Andrea Mantegna, how they took over the work of this artist and to what extent they were able to imitate or remodel this art.
