Besides the brief outline of the art collecting activities of some members of the Princely house of Lichnowsky, the last owners of the Hradec nad Moravicí Chateau, prominent patrons and organizers of social life. This text is dedicated in particular to a subtle segment of the family art collections at their chateau in Hradec. The segment consists of a set of four gothic sculptures of German provenience. The oldest of them is a Pietà (from the 3rd quarter of the 14th century) from Rhineland or Swabia. Virgin Mary Expectant and St Anna Selbdritt very likely originated in the 2nd quarter of the 15th century in the south of Germany. The youngest of the whole set is a strongly Swabian-oriented Assumption from around 1500.
