The paper takes a closer look at the Late Baroque remodelling of the St. Emmeram Cathedral in Nitra, commissioned by Bishop Ladislas Adam Count Erdody and executed from 1710 to 1732, and especially at its wall paintings by noted artist Gottlieb Anton Galliarti. The text and figures guide us through general historical background, architectural development of the cathedral, Galliarti's activities in Nitra and abroad and finally concentrate on the frescos in the sanctuary of the Upper Church, in the Lower Church, on altarpieces, and on painter's inspirations and his work with models.
