The Picture Gallery at the Castle in Rychnov nad Kněžnou
 Adamová, Klára ; Jarošová, Markéta (advisor) ; Nespěšná Hamsíková, Magdaléna (referee)
The subject undertaken in my dissertation work is the gallery painting collection from the aristocratic family 'Kolowrat', which is located within the family's palace in Rychnov nad Kněžnou. The Kolowrats established their gallery in the 16th century, the foundation of which was made to contain family member portraits. During this time portrait paintings comprised the main element and went on to create the portrait collection. The collection contains the oldest Bohemian aristocratic portraits from the Renaissance with portraits influenced by artists from the court of Emperor Rudolf II. It includes portraits from important artists as Karel Škréta, David Schultz or Philip Ch. Bentum and more. The portraits of family members document the history of the Kolowrat clan through the ages. At first this dissertation describes the history of the gallery and goes on to present select portraits from the beginning of the gallery until the 18th century. Keywords Aristocracy, the Rychnov nad Kněžnou palace, the Kolowrat family gallery, portrait collection, aristocracy portrait.
