Seals of the monastery of the Canons Regular of St. Augustine in Lanškroun. An example of fine artwork from Bohemia in the final quarter of the 14th century

Abstract The article looks at the seals of the monastery of the Canons Regular of St. Augustine in Lanškroun. The site is located in East Bohemia, where the monastery was active between 1371 and 1421?. The article presents the preserved seals of the provost, prior, and convent. The seal image consists of figures of the saints to whom the monastery was consecrated, featuring the usual attributes: Our Lady, St. Nicholas, and St. Catherine. They are depicted either individually (in the case of the provost’s and prior’s seals) or together (in the case of convent seals). The exception to this rule is the private seal of provost Henry from 1387, which depicts the Old Testament King David. This seal stands out from other seals as it refers to early Humanism.
