University theses were commemorative copies announcing a public defence of particular subjects of students’ theses. Their publishing culminated in the 1730s, the time when the thesis from the collection of the Slovak National Gallery originated. This extraordinary copy is printed on silk used for gift copies for protectors of discussion. In the context of the work of Johann Lorenzo Haid and Christian Rugendas, the leading Augsburg artists, this thesis is among the works displaying a distinctly moderate form. Ten years later, the same artists used a slightly changed face of St Peter as a model for a more narrative thesis of Leopold Mach from Bechyně (the Klementinum collection in Prague). The exhibition is a free continuation of the exhibition of another work restored in 2001 (Gustav Andreas Wolfgang: Illumination in Frankfurt, a commemorative scroll welcoming Emperor Charles VII. 1743). Both works are printed on silk and therefore similar methods of restoration and conservation were used.
