CZ: Madona s roztaženýma rukama, korunou na hlave a svatozárí - na klíne s žehnajícím synem - na kolorovaném a zlaceném reliéfu nad hlavním portálem kostela Nanebevzetí Panny Marie a sv. Václava v Kralupech nad Vltavou. Stavba kostela byla zahájena 14. 7. 1894 v novogotickém stylu a dokoncena po 17 mesících. Kostel byl vysvecen 27. ríjna 1895. Vež kostela je vysoká 63m, oltár je neobvykle na severozápadní strane - reliéf tudíž najdeme na jihozápadní strane kostela.
EN: Madonna with her arms outstretched, a crown on her head, and a halo - on her lap with a blessing son - on the colored and gilded relief above the main portal of the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and Sts. Wenceslas in Kralupy nad Vltavou. The construction of the church began on 14 July 1894 in the neo-Gothic style and was completed after 17 months. The church was consecrated on October 27, 1895. The church tower is 63 meters high, the altar is unusually on the northwest side - the relief can therefore be found on the southwest side of the church.
