The paper presents the strategy of refocalization in apocryphal ekphrases and ekphrastic apocrypha, and more specifically, the shift from the perspective that dominates the original painting into the perspective and narrative that are valid in the literary text(s) inspired by this painting. The precise subject of this study are works related to Rembrandt’s The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp – Jacek Dehnel’s Po wyjściu malarza, Jacek Kaczmarski’s Lekcja anatomii (według Rembrandta), Nina Siegal’s Anatomy Lesson and a fragment of the W.G. Seblad’s novel The Rings of Saturn.
