The Prague painter Anton Stevens of Steinfels in the services of Prince Gundaker von Liechtenstein
Vácha, Štěpán
The detailed analysis of historical sources and archival text from the Family Archive of the Liechtenstein princes in Vienna allows us to identify the Prague painter Anton Stevens of Steinfels (around 1610–1675) with a so-far unidentified painter whom Prince Gundaker von Liechtenstein tried to employ in 1640. In connection with this identification, the author attempts to identify the authorship of one of Gundaker´s portraits found in the family collection of the Liechtenstein princes.

The material left by Zdeněk Wirth on his death in the documentation department of the Institute of Art History AS CR
Krummholz, Martin ; Uhlíková, Kristina ; Vácha, Štěpán
The article deals with the extensive collection of materials left by Zdeněk Wirth, which he bequeathed shortly before his death to what is today the Institute of Art History, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. The unusual quantity of these materials, quite exceptional for a personal collection, together with their nature (they include many photographs, plans, and drawings), suggest the hypothesis that the greater part of this collection consists of the remains of the former Historical Monuments Archive, built up during the interwar years at the State Photogrammetry Institute.
