tour guide: Magdalena Bialic
A walk through the museum’s most visited gallery is like browsing through an album of Poland’s most important paintings. Together, we follow the changes in Polish art that took place from the end of the 18th century to the early 20th century. We’ll see iconic historically-themed artwork by Józef Simmler and Jan Matejko and the tremendous academic canvases of Henryk Siemiradzki. We’ll find out why Józef Chelmonski’s painting “The Indian Summer” caused a scandal in the Warsaw art world and discover who’s who in Jacek Malczewski’s paintings. The Gallery of 19th Century Art is a treasure trove of unusual stories and aesthetic delights.
