Jakub František Prokyš
OLDŘICHOVÁ, Lucie
Jakub František Prokyš The bachelor work Jakub František Prokyš is intent on a successful painter who lived in the 18th century. He originally came from Slaný but his life fate took him into culturally developing South Bohemia. It was a great chance for him. Strongly flourishing Schwarzenberg's family were establishing their position in Bohemia not only by buying new areas but as well as by improving their former and newly gained dominion. That is why the Schwarzenbergs employed a lot of important architects, painters and sculptors. Jakub František Prokyš was among them. Everything has not been cleared up about Prokyš´ destiny up today. There are a lot of questions which answers we are still looking for. Basically, until to his coming to South Bohemia we do not have real data about his life and apprenticeship. Even in his South Bohemian life many questions are hidden. It is the most remarkable to follow how respectable person could become from a quite unknown artist. He got among notable people. He earned enough money to be able to buy his own house and take care of his family during his life. However, professional success was changed by family tragedies. He was a great fresco painter as well as he could paint even altar paintings. It is strange that his very early works are considered to be his best ones. Those were ordered by Joseph Adam Schwarzenberg. The most space is devoted to those works of art in my bachelor work. The aim of the work is my attempt at closer outlline of Prokyš´not well recognized life.

Alois Toufar as an artist and educator
KŘIVÁNKOVÁ, Lucie
This thesis deals with a significant art teacher and painter Alois Toufar. It monitors progress of his professional activity with emphasis on the term "Brtnicky krouzek" as well as territory of Toufar´s not only professional activity. As opposed to all the other published and rather patchy works about Alois Toufar, this thesis essentially uses oral information sources, which in result give much more stereoscopic images about the life of Alois Toufar as a significant person in art education with not only regional importance. Expected benefit of this thesis is the improvement of current ability of children's speech and particularly mapping life and career of significant personality of art education, which is not too exposed today.

In the Footsteps of Vladimír Franz
SWIERSOVIČ, Magdaléna
Vladimir Franz is a fascinating individuality of the czech culture scene. He is famous mainly for his visage, tattoos all over his body and face. Unfortunately nearly nobody knows his opinions, mind and amazing music. My essay is about the life and work of Vladimir Franz. It is an analysis of work and personality of this composer, teacher and last but not least painter.
