The exhibition displays some thirty major artworks in the Beautiful style of Salzburg type some of which were discovered only in the recent years. Some are presented for the first time, others are shown side by side with the works most closely related with them. Their charm and beauty, but also iconographic differences, seeming naturalness and stylization of these sculptures offer a rare aesthetic experience.

The main exhibits are the Beautiful Madonna of Leogang from 1380–1390 (the Mining and Gothic Museum) and the Beautiful Madonna of Hallstatt (the National Gallery Prague) from 1400–1410, which is closely related in terms of style with the Madonna of Krumlov (the Museum of Decorative Arts in Vienna).

Project authors and curators: Hermann Mayrhofer (Leogang), Marius Winzeler a Štěpánka Chlumská (NGP)
