Abstract

The exhibition "Norbert Grund (1717-1767). The Charm of the Everyday" is the first such event to present Grund's genre painting, depicting scenes from everyday life, in a broader context. The individual sections of the exhibition examine a variety of different themes and facilitate a comparison of the artist's works with contemporary Central European cabinet painting and pictures that could have inspired his own output. An independent chapter is devoted to etchings made by Jan Jirí Balzer (1734-1799) that document the popularity of Grund's paintings. The exhibition is complemented by examples of decorative art objects illustrating the culture of the Rococo period.
