Tree Chamber in the castle of Bechyně
FIALOVÁ, Tereza
The bachelor thesis deals with the space and decoration of the so-called Tree Chamber in the castle of Bechyně. The interest of Tereza Fialová is confined to the person of the builder Ladislav from Šternberk, who let the chamber present like an allusium of the natural environment. The unclear function of the uniquely conceived space is interpreted on the basis of comparison with the other areas of the settlements of the significant aristocratic families in the territory of southern Bohemia. Another part of the bachelor thesis is a material examination of the space, which results in the research of the preserved decoration, the analysis of the used material and the documentation of the stone stamps. Particular attention is given to the potential architect of the chamber, Wendel Roskopf, whose authorship is verified on the basis of an analysis of his life-work and artistic expression in connection with the decorative concept of the stone decoration. The bachelor thesis is closed by the definition of the theoretical sources of the naturalistic imitation of the natural motives in late Gothic sacral and profane architecture.
