| Description | The article deals with the question of whether the rich citizens of the 18th century Bohemian city of Jihlava (German Iglau) influenced artistic life in the city. Patronage and participating of citizens on artistic life in the town is demonstrated on the wall-paintings in the Chapel of Mater-Dolorosa in the church of St. Jacob the Greater (Václav Jindřich Nosek, Michael Václav Halbax), in the church of St. Ignatius of Loyola (Karel František Antonín Tepper) and wall decorations on the exterior walls of some rich private houses in Jihlava (Nosek, Tepper, and other painters). |
