Die mittelalterlichen Wasserspeier vom Turm des Franziskanerklosters in Bratislava auf Mockers Skizzen aus dem Jahr 1862

Rok, strany: 2024, 140 - 151

The article presents an analysis of an unknown iconographic source hitherto – two sketches by architect Josef Mocker (1835–1899), depicting Gothic gargoyles of the Franciscan monastery tower in Bratislava, including their exact position on the tower. Their placement into the context of study trips of Friedrich von Schmidt´s (1825–1891) students at the Viennese Academy of Fine Arts in the second half of the 19th century, and, simultaneously, their comparison with selected archival references, literature, period photographs and neo-Gothic copies of gargoyles on the tower, brings about new findings on the original forms of these Gothic architectural components, preserved to the present day only as fragments on the tower in Janko Kráľ´s Garden in Bratislava-Petržalka.
