SN 12121487
AB The article features one of the most prominent creators of Baroque architecture in Bohemia, the architect and builder Giovanni Battista Alliprandi. The first part deals with the terms and conditions of Alliprandi's activity for his very first significant employer in Bohemia, Count Herman Jacob Czernin von Chudenitz (including the contract signed by the architect and the count). The second, briefer part is dedicated to Alliprandi's work in Vienna; although it has not been unambiguously documented yet, it seems to be indicated by Prague and Viennese archival sources.
