oil, duplicated canvas; size 216 x 131 cm
state of preservation: after conservation

"The painting is a fully original altar painting, depicting one of the miracles of St. Wenceslas, the patron saint of Bohemia (the title can be described as: St. Wenceslaus' miraculous defeat of Prince Radzislaus in battle). The painting is a standing at a very good level work of Silesian painting from the 1st quarter of the 18th century, with some "conservative" features referring to the painting of the previous century, perhaps through the tradition of guild painting. (...) The optimal place for its storage and exhibition should be one of the Silesian museums (...)"
