Kuběnová, Veronika ; Sládková, Kateřina (advisor) ; Těšínská Lomičková, Radka (referee)
1 ABSTRACT This thesis presents a study of a field of everyday culture - medieval fashion and its development during the reign of Charles IV of Luxembourg and his son Wenceslas in the Czech lands in the years 1330 - 1410. As these fashion trends and changes were exhibited primarily through the clothing of nobility, this thesis focuses exclusively on the environs of the aristocracy and royal court. In addition to written sources and archaeological finds, the fine arts also serve to advance our knowledge of Gothic fashion trends, whose works authentically capture the contemporary clothing styles and changes in all of Europe. This thesis therefore examines, through a methodical analysis, how wall paintings, panel paintings and book illuminations of Czech provenance reflect changes in clothing fashions and tastes in courtly environs during the period of time known as Luxembourg Gothic. This study of primary iconographic sources in authentic historical buildings and galleries was further aided by the creation of an extensive photo archive. This thesis presents a representative sampling of the works from this archive which documents a basic transformation of Czech clothing culture and the creation of a Bohemian style of Gothic fashion, culminating at the turn of the 14th and 15th century and enriching European...

Picture of the last judgment in Renaissance Bohemia
Hejná, Tereza Rozálie ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Nespěšná Hamsíková, Magdaléna (referee)
In my bachelor thesis I deal with portrayal of the Last Judgement in the Czech Republic in 15th -16th century. The first part was conceived as an introduction to Last Judgment - the Last judgment as a socio-cultural phenomenon; causes and history showing the last judgment; iconological-iconographic description of the subject. In the second part I'm devoted to the main topic, portrayal of the last judgment in Bohemia in the 15th-16th century. I'm trying to a compendium of all the works of art in our country, and they are especially frescoes. I also deal with the causes of their emergence, seeking their sources of inspiration and subjugation the iconographic-iconographic analysis. Then compare the individual works, not only among themselves but also with older parts that originated outside our area.

Renaissance mural paintings and sgraffiti on the facades in town Prachatice
Žabková, Gabriela ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Nespěšná Hamsíková, Magdaléna (referee)
Práce zpracovává renesanční fasádní nástěnné malby a sgrafita v Prachaticích. Časově je práce vymezena 16. stoletím, kdy město vlastnili Rožmberkové. Největší rozkvět města je spojen s vládou Viléma z Rožmberka v 2. polovině 16. století, kdy ve městě také vnikly všechny výpravnější figurální výzdoby domů. Výzdoba jednotlivých domů odráží postupný majetkový vzestup prachatických měšťanů. Realizace z 50. a 60. let 16. století jsou spíše výtvarně a také technologicky skromnější. Největší vzepětí jak majetkové tak také umělecké lze sledovat od začátku 70. let. Hrdost měšťanů a jejich estetické nároky nejlépe dokládá výzdoba Staré radnice. Nesmírně zajímavá a kvalitní výzdoba prachatických domů otvírá jako celek řadu otázek. Vedle dílenských a uměleckých souvislostí s ostatními jihočeskými městy, je to problém autenticity památky. Na některých fasádách, které byly pokládány za renesanční, se již s renesanční malbou ve skutečnosti nesetkáme. Jedná se o barokní novotvary, které motivickými částmi navázaly na původní výzdobu. Výrazné jsou odkazy na Rožmberky, které připomíná téměř každá fasáda. To nelze vysvětlit jinak, než jako výraz subordinace majiteli panství a tamnímu panovníkovi. Rožmberky na počátku 17. století v této roli vystřídal český král a říšský císař. KLÍČOVÁ SLOVA - Prachatice - renesance -...

Style analysis qualifies style resemblance, analogy, parallels and confronts the mural paintings with contemporary book, mural and carving production. It also deals with the problematics of over painting accidental intervention into the monument. This part deduces the probable creation time of the whole interior decoration of the decanal sacristy. The final part evaluates and recapitulates the whole problematics.

The mural painting in the castle of Žirovnice
SEVEROVÁ, Markéta
The murals inside the Žirovnice chateau are considered to be some of the most interesting and extensive works of art of the 15th century. Thanks to them, the owner at the time, mining mogul Vencelík z Vrchovišť from Kutná Hora, became part of the same class as his highborn neighbours of the South Bohemian aristocracy. The excellent artist commissioned to create the work has hitherto been referred to in art history literature as the Master of the Žirovnice Murals. The artwork inside the Jindřichův Hradec chateau is also linked to this author, and certain analogies are also present in the murals in the Švihov castle. Thanks to the origin of the submitter of this original medeival work, the Smíškovská chapel in Church of St. Barbora in Kutná Hora is also often referred to when speaking of the Žirovnice murals. Within the Žirovnice chateau, the artwork in the so-called Green Room is very well preserved to this day. This is considered to be a consistent type of secular interior of the late Gothic period, and is thus viewed as the most pronounced material manifestation of the mentality of Czech post-Hussite aristocracy. Some of the earliest so-called Green Rooms can be found in the Blatná chateau and the Zvíkov castle.

Also deals with the Christian symbolism in the painting. The second part is primarily devoted to art of the catacombs, where there are lots of murals painting by early Christians. Also includes chapters on biblical topics and techniques of mural painting. The third part is devoted to the further development of early Christian painting. It includes the golden age of Byzantine art, describes the art of mosaics in Ravenna monuments.
