Abstract: Kryštof Popel the Younger of Lobkowicz was a distinguished personality of the court of Rudolf II. The Oberlandeshofmeister owned two palaces in Prague and spent considerable sums in the purchase of artworks for his residence, garden or burial chapel in the Prague Cathedral, he also frequently commissioned jewellery, precious watches and other valuable objects. The paper is focused mainly on portraits as likenesses of Kryštof Popel were made by prominent Rudolphine artists and represent the renewal of portraiture during the reign of Rudolf II in the Czech lands. |
