Abstracts

EN

The article reveals new facts from the life of the graphic artist and printer Jan Filipowicz, who in 1757–1766 ran a company comprising printing and engraving houses and a bookshop. Despite the fact that Filipowicz was a popular book illustrator in the eastern part of Poland, so far we have had very little information about his professional activities and private life. Drawing on documents from the Central State Historical Archives of Ukraine in Lviv (Центральний Державний Історичний Архів Украіни у Львові) — Filipowicz’s will and two posthumously compiled versions of his property inventory — and of the basis of contemporary Polish and Ukrainian literature, the author has managed to establish and put in order many facts concerning the life of the typographer and the operation of his company.
