akwarele Stronczyńskiego - Opis:
- In 1844-1855, an inventory of historical monuments on the territory of the Kingdom of Poland established under the protectorate of the Russian Empire was made. The works financed with state resources in compliance with an issued instruction were carried out by Kazimierz Stronczyński, head of a State Commission, and assisted by a draughtsman and an archivist. Kazimierz Stronczynski (1809-1896), a heraldist, sfragistist, and a numismatist, was well prepared to fulfil this task. The delegation reached monuments in 410 towns within 5 guberniyas of the Kingdom. The fruit of the works in the form of five volumes of descriptions and 420 water-colour views in seven portfolios has luckily survived at the Print Cabinet of the Warsaw University Library. This tremendous work: the first in Europe state-run inventory of historical monuments, remains unpublished despite the fact that 150 years have elapsed since its creation,. It was only Michał Walicki in his essay of 1931 who analysed the works of Stronczynski and his co-workers. The inventory has only partially been used for conservation works. Publication of the monumental inventory has become the matter of pride. Therefore, on the initiative of the Warsaw University Library preparations to publish Stronczyński' work have been undertaken. A nine-person team of art historians headed by the author of the present article have made an attempt to reach the monuments described by Stronczyński in order to confront their present state of preservation with the original one from 150 years ago. For this purpose photographs were taken from the places from which watercolours had previously been painted. The elaborated commentaries did not only record changes, but also completed historical information using the most recent scholarly literature. Currently, attempts are being made to acquire financing to publish this colossal ten-volume work by Stronczyński.
