The article is part of a doctor’s thesis on ’’Materials and Techniques in Oil Paintings of Piotr Michałowski”. The work of this outstanding romantic painter came to light relatively late, hence it is difficult to date his unsigned paintings. On the basis of exmined frames, canvases, mordants and paints the author undertakes an attempt to reconstruct the order of the creation of paintings assuming that there are links between places of arist’s residence and materials used in painting. A study of 32 paintings of Piotr Michałowski found in the collection of National Museums in Cracow and Warsaw has shown that only eight original painters’ frames have been preserved. Despite such a small number of frames, they became an importat element in dating artisti’s work, just as their construction depended on places where they were bought or made. Preserved frames represent four different types according to the construction of angles. The construction of frames from big centres such as Cracow or Warsaw was most sophisticated for that period. On the other hand, the construction of frames from paintings done in country estates, made by rural carpenters reminds of combinations used in the 17th and in the first half of the 18th century. The dates of the manufacture of frames established in this way were verified during the examination of sub- paintings, mordants and paints, which proved the correctness of proposed dating. The results obtained in the studies reveal a necessity to pay attention to the recording of all conservation interferences including original frames, often removed inconsiderately.
