The article reveals how the royal trip to Kaniów in 1787 would have looked like, depicting the extent to which contemporaneous citizens received the monarch during his journey in their towns and homes. Reference is made to the forms of ceremonial architecture raised especially to greet the king’s arrival, including the triumphal arch at Lachowce from the same year in accordance with a design by August Dobrogost Jabłoński and the gateway before Potok by Jan Lindsey. Fireworks, concerts and theatrical performances would have been arranged for the king’s entertainment. The culmination to the journey involved meeting the tsarina on her galley on the River Dnieper on 6th May 1787, for which the royal architect, Jakub Kubicki, prepared a ceremony in honour of her majesty, while illuminations and firework displays were put on depicting an obelisk bearing the tsarina’s name, to be followed by a further set of fireworks arranged to show an outline of Vitruvius.
