The paper draws attention to an almost unknown manuscript that had been held in the Cistercian Monastery library at Osek and has been kept in the Plzeň Municipal Archive since 1970. It contains full-page copies of the Wettin gallery portraits commissioned by the end of the 1580s by Christian I of Saxony from court painter Heinrich Göding. The lixurious binding of the manuscript shows that it was written at the same time as the portrait gallery was produced directly for Christian I. The manuscript has an inestimable value nowadays because original canvases painted by Göding are unaccounted for since the end of World War Two.
