The study is devoted to a hitherto anonymous oil sketch from the collections of the Moravian Gallery in Brno, in which a hitherto unknown work of the Olomouc painter Johann Christoph Handke (1694–1774) was recognized. The work with the themes of the Celebration of the Lamb of God and the Parable of the Feast was most probably created in 1726 in connection with the painter’s commission to paint the refectory of the Jesuit college in Olomouc.
