There are medals, devotional prints, sculptures and monumental altarpieces. Certainly interesting are the graphic works that were published in large editions, which were financially accessible to the general public and through them spread the cult of the saints not only in our country but also to the world,&#8221; says the author of the exhibition Simona Jemelkov\u00e1.<\/p>\n<p>Veneration of the two saints flourished most during the Baroque period, in the 17th and 18th centuries. It was a time of fervent Christian faith, a time when Catholic Christianity was revived after the horrors of the Thirty Years War. After the Enlightenment and the revolutions of the late 18th and first half of the 19th century, when the strained Baroque Catholicism was rejected and anti-Catholic attacks were frequent, the second half of the 19th century brought a certain revival of the Christian Catholic faith and veneration of the two saints came to the fore again. This was reflected in the beatification of John Sarkander in 1859. For the first time ever, visitors will have the opportunity to see recently restored paintings by the German painter Julius Muhr, who worked in Rome in the 1850s. The third period of growing interest, this time especially in Jan Sarkander, came after the November Revolution, when Pope John Paul II declared Jan Sarkander a saint during his visit to Olomouc in 1995.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition at the Archdiocesan Museum Olomouc is open from 05.10.2023 to 28.01.2024<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/muo.cz\/en\/vystavy\/john-and-john\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/muo.cz\/en\/vystavy\/john-and-john\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n        <\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":9360,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[684,65],"tags":[685,974,110,50,313,312],"class_list":["post-9359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ahice-en","category-exhibitions","tag-ahice","tag-central-europe-en-2","tag-czechia","tag-exhibition","tag-muo","tag-olomouc"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>&quot;Jan a Jan.
