The author describes the Wilno Gallery of Paintings of Famous Poles of Father Józef Konstanty Bogusławski. The Gallery collected over thirty years included ‘two hundred and some dozens’ of oil paintings, a significant part of them constituted by copies of portraits of Polish monarchs and Polish dignitaries from the Royal Castle in Warsaw, as well as effigies of Lithuanian dignitaries, scenes from Lithuanian history and sculptures. The Gallery was dispersed in 1820. The National Museum in Warsaw possesses a set of over 70 canvases from this Gallery.
