| Description | Iconography of the Chapel of St Joseph in the Brno in the Minorite Church of Sts Johns reflects the orientation of the local religious confraternity Jesus Mary Joseph. A closer look at the local visual realizations (a fresco and two pictures) and their position in the context of the baroque literal production and the liturgical running of the chapel shows that the main followed line is the issue of good death and help for souls in the purgatory as well as that these visual representations could hide broader meanings than those explicitly expressed in the then believer’s imagination. |
