The article is devoted to the theoretical emblematical work of the German Jesuit Jacob Masen, who in his book Speculum Veritatis Imaginum Occultae, offered a sophisticated system and comprehensive interpretation of "figurative" (metaphorical) image. The book was apparently well known to the learned Olomouc Augustinian and painter Martin Antonin Lublinsky (1636-1690). Lublinsky designed the painting decoration of the Pilgrim Church of the Visitation at the Holy Hill near Olomouc, which has been brought into effect according to his artwork, around 1675 by the Italian painter Giacomo Tencalla (1644-1689). Some of the ceiling paintings reproduce literary emblems from the book of Jacob Masen. The major part of the emblematic paintings in the church is designed new, but in compliance with Masen’s theory of figurative images.
