1	František Siard Nosecký / František Siard Nosecký Staňková, Petra January 2019 (has links) This diploma thesis focuses on František Siard Nosecký (1693 - 1753) - Czech baroque painter and on his artwork. He was born into an artistic environment. His father Jindřich Nosecký was also a painter which certainly greatly influenced his son. The majority of pieces of Siard Nosecký came into existence for Premonstratensian order into which he joined as a young man. Location of his artwork frequently corresponds with the location of his parish. His functioning is noticeable at different locations in Bohemia. However the largest space for self-fulfillment he had in Prague at Strahov in his home monastery where he spent the biggest portion of his consecrated life. In addition to acquainting with the life, work and creative inspiration of the painter, a substantial part of the thesis consists of a catalog of works that presents not only extant works but also several non-existent realizations that we learn about only from literature today.
2	Život a dílo pozdně barokního malíře Josefa Hagera / Life and work of a late Baroque painter Joseph Hager Lokšová, Pavlína January 2014 (has links) Life and work of a late baroque painter Joseph Hager The thesis outlines artistic work of Joseph Hager, Czech late baroque painter. The author, especially of the wall painting, studied by Jan Karel Kovář and Antonio d'Agostini. Later worked as an assistant of František Karel Palko in a church St. Nicolas placed in Lesser Town od Prague. The illusive painting of architecture was his specialization. He worked primarily in Czech, but for example he decorated also a church in Vranov near Brno or a church in Dresden. The essential part of thesis is catalog of realizations, which contains a lot of extant works, but also a few realizations, which during the ages were destroyed.
3	Špitál sv. Alžběty na Pohořelci. Dochované oltářní obrazy ze špitální kaple. / Saint Elizabeth's spital in Pohořelec. The extant altarpieces of the spital's chapel. Lorencová, Veronika January 2017 (has links) Saint Elizabeth's spital in Pohořelec The extant altarpieces of the spital's chapel Abstract This thesis deals with the Saint Elizabeth's spital in Pohořelec near the monastery of Premonstratensians in Strahov. This spital was founded by the abbot Kaspar Questenberg and was located in the western part of Pohořelec. However, the original building wasn't preserved, because it had to yield to Prague's fortification in the 60's of the 17th century. Under the abbot Vincenc Makarius Frank the new spital was constructed. There was the chapel dedicated to the patron St. Elisabeth, which was mentioned in the written sources since the beginning of the hospital existence. During few years there were also ordered altarpieces. The contemporary literature associates only two paintings of saints with Saint Elizabeth's spital (St. Barbara and St. Rosalia). These paintings were placed on the side altars of the chapel and today are in the possession of the Royal Canonry of Premonstratensians at Strahov. Thanks to the preserved written sources, we were able to discover additional information of the spital's equipment and the chapel main altarpiece. This thesis summarizes the previous research and determines templates of altarpieces and their sources of inspiration. The attention is also aimed to the history of the spital,...

5	Život pražských malířů v 17. a 18. století / The painter's life in Prague in the 17th and 18th centuries Sekyrka, Tomáš January 2016 (has links) The painter's life in Prague in the 17th and 18th centuries Tomáš Sekyrka For more than a century, the life stories of Prague-based painters in the Baroque era (which I define as 1620-1780 for the purposes of this work) have been a focus of research by art historians and other specialists. Research in this area was based to varying degrees on an analysis and interpretation of artworks and data offered by a multitude of written documents, primarily drawing information from the registers of Prague parishes (providing major dates in painters' lives), various official records of municipal authorities (corroborating, among other facts, the circumstances of painters' admission to the estates of Prague burghers or facts on property title, particularly ownership of houses), a wealth of accounting materials (about the relationship between those commissioning the artworks and the artists themselves, in particular the client's requirements and deadlines and artist's compensation). Nor did researchers neglect the unique manuscripts of the Prague painters' guilds (one in each of Prague's three towns), which provide membership lists and meeting minutes. However, a considerable amount of the historical data discovered by researchers has been used mostly to study the origin of specific artworks or to capture a certain...
6	Sakrální tvorba barokního malíře Jana Petra Molitora / Sacral Works of Baroque Painter Jan Petr Molitor Sejkorová Kašparová, Věra January 2020 (has links) Sacral Works of Baroque Painter John Peter Molitor Thesis deals with sacral work of John Peter Molitor (1702-1757) baroque painter of german origin working in Bohemia. He studied art in Germany but in Bohemia he was influenced by V. V. Reiner's work. His subject areas were portrait and sacral works were where he was excellent. We can find some portrait traits of particular persons at some Molitor's paintings of saints. His realization in the sacral sourroundings can be found in Middle Bohemia and Prague. He worked mainly for churches but he also worked for aristocrats whom he decorated the interiors of palace chapels. The fundamental part of thesis is catalog of wall paintings and altarpieces which contain a lot of extant works but also a few destroyed realizations. Thesis outlines facts about J. P. Molitor and his religious paintings realizations.
7	Rubens and the Stoic Baroque: Classical Stoic Ethics, Rhetoric, and Natural Philosophy in Rubens’s Style Nutting, Catherine M. 18 January 2018 (has links) Rubens is known as a painter; he should also be defined as an art theorist. Following Robert Williams’ theory that Early Modern art became philosophical, I believe that style can connote art theoretical interests and philosophical models, and that in Rubens’s case, these included the classical Stoic. While it would be possible to trace Rubens’s commitment to Stoicism in his subject matter, I investigate it in his style, taking a Baxandalian approach to inferential criticism. I focus on Rubens’s formal choices, his varied brushwork, and his ability to create a vibrant picture plane. My study is divided into chapters on Ethics, Logic, and Physics. In Chapter One I treat Stoic moral philosophy as an influence in the design of Rubens’s paintings, consider similarities between classical and Early Modern interest in viewer/reader response, and argue that Baroque artists could use style to avoid dogma while targeting viewers’ personal transformation. In Chapter Two I focus on Rhetoric, a section of the Stoic philosophy of Logic. Stoic Logic privileged truth: that is, it centred on investigating existing reality. As such, Stoic rhetorical theory and the classical literature influenced by it promoted a style that is complex and nuanced. I relate this to the Early Modern interest in copia, arguing that this includes Rubens’s painterly style which, apropos copia, should be better termed the Abundant Style. In Chapter Three I explore similarities between Stoic Natural Philosophy and the Early Modern artistic interest in the unified visual field. The Stoics defined the natural world as eternally moving and mixing; with force fields, energy, and elements in constant relationships of cause/effect. The Stoic concept of natural sympathy was a notion of material/energetic interrelatedness in which the world was seen as a living body, and the divine inhered in matter. I consider ways that these classical Stoic concepts of transformation, realism, and vivified matter might be discerned in Rubens’s style. / Graduate / 2023-12-14 Art History Peter Paul Rubens Baroque Baroque Painting Seventeenth-Century Antwerp Seventeenth-Century Art Style Baroque Style Stoicism Stoicism and Art Early Modern NeoStoicism Antwerp NeoStoicism Flemish NeoStoicism Seventeenth-Cenury Flemish Art Seventeenth-Cenury Flemish Painting Flemish Baroque Painting Stoicism and Style Stoic Ethics Stoic Ethical Philosophy Stoic Rhetoric Stoic Rhetorical Philosophy Stoic Physics Stoic Natural Philosophy Roger de Piles Seneca Seneca Naturales Questiones Tacitus Tacitus's Style Tacitus and Stoicism Stoic continuum Baroque unity Justus Lipsius Early Modern Library Macchia Sententiae Style and Meaning Quintilian Diogenes Laertius Epictetus Chrysippus Marcus Aurelius Early Modern Art Theory Rubens as a Theorist Antwerp Humanism Flemish Humanism Humanism in Flanders and Brabant The Self The Early Modern Self Style for Truth The Continuum Nature Alive Stoic Optimism Seventeenth-Century Stoic Optimism
