Living Renaissance: The Survival of the Style in Wall Painting, Based on Examples of Works from the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands

Abstract

The article focuses on Renaissance wall painting after 1620, in other words after the time that is generally regarded as the rise of Baroque. They thus confirm Max Dvořák's theory about the parallel development of styles.

The painting in St. Georges's church in Božejov, the chapel of the St.

Michael the Archangel in Dolní Krupá, houses n. 57 and 17 in Jihlava, and the church of St. Bartholomew in Pelhřimov graphically demonstrate the ideas mentioned above.
