Anglickojazyčná monografie je věnována uměleckým dílům od gotiky k manýrismu ve fondech Národního památkového ústavu. Navazuje a dílem čerpá z prvních česky vydaných svazků edice Ad unicum. S dílčími korekturami tak byla převzata úvodní studie věnovaná provenienčnímu výzkumu mobiliárních fondů hradů a zámků ve správě NPÚ. Tyto fondy byly svěřeny do správy instituce po II. světové válce, po jejich vyvlastnění na základě Benešových dekretů. Druhá část knihy představuje v osmdesáti monografických studiích vybrané malby a sochy od gotiky k manýrismu, přičemž důraz byl kladen na výběr uměleckých děl s přesahem k zahraničnímu bádání a představuje tak badatelskou bázi pro navazující výzkum (Tilman Riemenschneider, Hans Toman, Hans Brosamer, Benedetto Buglioni, Joachim Patinir, Jacob Seisenegger, Herri met de Bles, Mirabelo Cavalori, Bartholomeus Spranger, Jan Gossaert, Jacob Grimmer, Lucas, Gillis and Frederick van Valckenborch, Jacob de Backer, Dosso and Battista Dossi, Master IP, Gielis Panhedel etc.). Texty doplňuje bohatá fotodokumentace jednotlivých děl umožňující čtenáři detailní představu o jednotlivých malířských i sochařských dílech, zastoupena je i dokumentace archivní či z restaurátorských průzkumů. 

 

The publication deals with works of art from Gothic to Mannerism from the furnishings  collection in the castles and chateaux under the administration of the National Heritage Institute (NHI) in the Czech Republic. The opening study introduces the issue of provenance research.The core of the collection was entrusted to the nowadays NHI following its expropriation after the Second World War. The aim of this book is to present selected paintings, carvings and other objects, in eighty elaborate and in-depth entries, with the emphasis on works of art significant for international research (Master of Třeboň Alterpiece, Tilman Riemenschneider, Hans Toman, Hans Brosamer, Benedetto Buglioni, Joachim Patinir, Jacob Seisenegger, Herri met de Bles, Mirabelo Cavalori, Bartholomeus Spranger, Jan Gossaert, Jacob Grimmer, Lucas, Gillis and Frederick van Valckenborch, Jacob de Backer, Dosso and Battista Dossi, Master IP, Gielis Panhedel etc.). The essays are accompanied by superb photographs, creating a unique art-historical resource.
