In the fall of 2008, an exhibition entitled „Painting of Polish Jews from a private collection” was organized in the Tenement House of Celejowska, branch of the Vistula Museum in Kazimierz Dolny. The opening of the exhibition was also inaugurated by the 1st Congress of Jewish Art, which was prepared by the Polish Association of Oriental Art - Section for Jewish and Israeli Art. These two events did not happen by accident in Kazimierz Dolny. During the interwar period, Druskininkai was the seat of the Jewish artistic colony, next to Zakopane, Kremenets, and Druskininkai. Moreover, Polish and Jewish artists worked together in Kazimierz, making the town a place that truly integrated these two nations. The exhibition was accompanied by an album-catalog of the same title.

Jesienią 2008 roku w Kamienicy Celejowskej Oddziale Muzeum Nadwiślańskiego w Kazimierzu Dolnym zorganizowano wystawę zatytułowaną „Malarstwo Żydów Polskich z kolekcji prywatnej”. Wernisaż ekspozycji inaugurował równocześnie I Kongres Sztuki Żydowskiej, który został przygotowany przez Polskie Stowarzyszenie Sztuki Orientu – Sekcja Sztuki Żydowskiej i Izraelskiej. Te dwa wydarzenia nie przypadkowo miały miejsce w Kazimierzu Dolnym. Miasto to w okresie międzywojnia obok Zakopanego, Krzemieńca, Druskiennik było siedzibą żydowskiej kolonii artystycznej. Co więcej, w środowisku kazimierskim wspólnie tworzyli artyści polscy i żydowscy, czyniąc miasteczko miejscem rzeczywiście integrującym te dwa narody. Wystawie towarzyszył album-katalog pod tym samym tytułem.

Part I The author, director o f the local museum at Kazimierz Dolny and at the same time municipal conservator of monuments, tells the story o f the town’s development and of the policy to protect its historical monuments and landscape values. In the presently published part I o f this article the author describes the stand of research into the history of the town as well as the various hypotheses concerning its origins and development. He discusses the archeological, historical and architectonic investigations made so far, which at present do not appear sufficient, however, for the formulation o f a conservational policy towards the town. This is followed by remarks on the town planning policy in Kazimierz during the period till 1945. The town’s expansion ended in the 17th century when building development reached the steep slopes o f the Grodarz brook valley and the bank of the Vistula. As a result, the next century brought an increase in the number o f houses, wooden houses of various sizes. There followed also a modification o f the functions of the town — from commercial into handicraft ones, during the 19th century, and into those of a summer resort, at the end o f tha) century. The author describes the destruction of Kazimierz during World War I and the architectonic activities in the inter-war period (J. Koszczyc-Witkiewicz, R. Gutt, К. Siciński) during which certain historical burghers houses were rebuilt and also some new buildings erected (for instance, the post-office near the market place and numerous villas outside the town centre area). After World War II the functions of conservator of Kazimierz Dolny were granted to architect Karol Siciński whom the author calls ,,an epigonus of the Polish conservational school”. In the years 1946—1947 K. Siciński worked out the town’s development plan and a detailed plan of the town centre. The author discusses individual aspects o f these works the keynote o f which was the full reconstruction o f the old buildings on the basis of available iconography and o f the latter’s corroboration found in building structure survivals. There follows a presentation of the realized designs o f K. Siciński to which belong, among others, the reconstruction or construction of some 60 buildings, the laying out of several new streets and the revalorization o f the market place. The activities of this architect have decided the present-day nature o f the township ■—■ a conglomerate o f professional architecture, popular building and splendid monuments. The author concludes by portraying the township which can justly claim a place on the world’s list of cultural treasures. The historical value of Kazimierz consists not only in its outstanding architectural monuments, but also in its entire pattern of wooden and masonry buildings as well as in its location which accounts for the closed-circle atmosphere and picturesque character of the town’s spatial composition. Of great significance in this respect is its environment — the valleys o f the Vistula and the Grodarz brook, the numerous hillsides cut by deep ravines, and the extremely intensive green of the vegetation. In the author’s opinion, conservational protection in Kazimierz should cover, among others, the following features: the skyline, the surrounding landscape, the verdure, the layout of streets and squares, the traditional division into building plots, all architectural monuments, time-honoured sights other than monuments, and the general atmosphere of old times and picturesqueness. According to the author’s announcement, part II of this article will deal with the present functions o f the town and with measures aimed at ensuring modern living conditions to its inhabitants.

Kazimierz Dolny (Kuzmir) był odwiedzany i utrwalany na płótnie przez wielu artystów. Przed 1914 rokiem i w okresie międzywojennym wśród artystów było wielu Żydów, a kolonia artystyczna w Kazimierzu Dolnym stała się jednym z najważniejszych i najpopularniejszych miejsc wśród nich. Jednak w Kazimierzu Dolnym nigdy nie było czegoś takiego jak ściśle żydowska kolonia artystyczna czy żydowskie środowisko artystyczne, a już na pewno nie była to kolonia polska. Łatwiej więc mówić o artystach-Żydach w Kazimierzu Dolnym jako o kolonii artystycznej czy kręgu artystycznym Kazimierza Dolnego niż o kolonii „narodowej” czy „etnicznej”. Granice między poszczególnymi grupami były elastyczne i to nie narodowość wyznaczała te granice.

Kazimierz Dolny (Kuzmir) was visited and painted by many artists. Before 1914, and during the interwar period, there had been a lot of Jews among the artists, and the art colo-ny of Kazimierz Dolny became one of the most important and popular places among them. However, there never was anything like a strictly Jewish artistic colony or Jewish artistic community in Kazimierz Dolny and there never was exactly a Polish colony. So, it is easier to speak about artists-Jews in Kazimierz Dolny’s artistic colony or Kazimierz Dolny’s artis-tic circle than about a “national” or “ethnic” colony. The boundaries among particular groups were flexible and it was not the nationality that defined those boundaries.

Pozostaje bezspornym, że Kazimierz Dolny ma szczególne wartości dla kultury, a tym samym spełnia wymagania stawiane obiektowi, który chce się uznać za pomnik historii. Niestety, regulacje dotyczące ochrony zabytków: decyzje z 1966 r. i z 1983 r. o wpisie do rejestru zabytków oraz zarządzenie Prezydenta RP z 1994 r. w sprawie uznania za pomnik historii Kazimierza Dolnego budzą szereg wątpliwości natury merytorycznej i prawnej – nie wiadomo czy obowiązują. Taka sytuacja wywołuje konflikty pomiędzy mieszkańcem Kazimierza Dolnego a władzami, w szczególności wojewódzkim konserwatorem zabytków. Dla zapewnienia Kazimierzowi Dolnemu odpowiedniej ochrony konserwatorskiej należy doprowadzić do wyeliminowania z obrotu prawnego ww. decyzji z 1966 r. i z 1983 r. oraz zarządzenia z 1994 r. Następnie powinno zostać wydane rozporządzenie Prezydenta RP w sprawie uznania za pomnik historii, które w sposób jednoznaczny określi przedmiot i zasady ochrony. Wydanie rozporządzenia trzeba poprzedzić badaniami, które w sposób jednoznaczny wskażą obszar podlegający ochronie oraz co i dlaczego na tym obszarze należy chronić. Artykuł należy traktować jako apel o likwidację chaosu prawnego dotyczącego zabytków. W podobnej sytuacji jak Kazimierz Dolny jest kilkanaście obiektów, które uznano za pomniki historii zarządzeniami Prezydenta RP wydanymi w 1994 r. Ochrona zabytków jest obowiązkiem zarówno władz, jak i społeczeństwa. Żeby była skuteczna, nie może być nacechowana uznaniowością. Tylko jednoznacznie, precyzyjnie ustalone obowiązki znajdą akceptacje społeczną, a bez niej trudno coś chronić. Ponadto potrzebna jest szeroko rozumiana edukacja. Karami nie wymusi się wrażliwości na piękno i szacunku dla historii. Uznanie za pomnik historii powinno być traktowane jako zaszczyt przez mieszkańców terenu, który ten status uzyskał, a nie jako „dopust boży”.

Undisputedly, Kazimierz Dolny is of special cultural significance for culture and thus meets the requirements to be considered as a monument of history. Unfortunately, the relevant regulations concerning the protection of historical monuments: the decisions of 1966 and 1983 on the inclusion of the town into the register of historical monuments and the ordinance of the President of the Republic of Poland of 1994 on recognizing Kazimierz Dolny as a monument of history raise a number of questions of a substantive and legal nature – it is uncertain whether they are valid. Such a situation causes conflicts between the inhabitants of Kazimierz Dolny and the authorities, especially the Regional Heritage Protection Authority. In order to provide Kazimierz Dolny with appropriate legal protection, the above-mentioned decisions of 1966 and 1983, as well as the 1994 ordinance, should be removed from legal circulation. Next, an ordinance of the President of the Republic of Poland should be issued to recognise the city as a monument of history, clearly defining the object and principles of the protection. The regulation should be preceded by research that would clearly indicate the area to be protected and specify what should be protected there and why. This paper should be treated as an appeal to eliminate the legal chaos concerning the monuments of history. There are several monuments in a similar situation as Kazimierz Dolny, which were recognised as monuments of history by the ordinances of President of Poland issued in 1994. The protection of monuments is the duty of both the authorities and the society. Only clearly and precisely defined obligations will be accepted by the society, without the cooperation of which it is difficult to protect anything. Moreover, education in various forms is needed. Penalties cannot enforce appreciation of beauty and respect for history. The recognition of an area as a monument of history should be treated as an honour by the inhabitants of a particular area, and not as “divine retribution”.

The author, conservator, for many years past, of historical monuments in Lublin Voivodship — describes the case', unprecedented in monument preservation and, namely, of the functions being combined in Kazimierz Dolny of director of the museum and those of conservator of historical monuments, the scope of his activities covering the whole o f the landscape area and historical grouping o f Kazimierz. This involved, of course, transferrence of many administrative powers to the conservator. And the problem as such resulted not only from the historical character of that little town but also from the almost twohundred year long tradition of the protection o f its historical monuments. Hence the descriptiop of the activities carried on there by Karol Siciński, architect and conservator, who was the first to prepare a regional development plan. The present appearance of Kazimierz Dolny was affected by the situation prevailing there in 1958—1971, after Kazimierz Sicinski’s death, when the town and its immediate surrounding were actually deprived o f any direct conservator protection. The little town’s dilema was then the discord of its unique cultural and tourist position with its status o f a locality of the lowest administrative rank. A precise analysis of the conditions of the protection of its historical monuments has resulted in instituting the post of conservator of Kazimierz and its surroundings. Proceeding with his deliberations the author recapitulates the activities carried on in the field for the five years past. The most important of them were: the buying out from its owner of the ruined Janowiec Castle and taking up of the work on its conservation; preparation o f the plans for spatial development of Kazimierz; curbing of spontaneous building; commencement of the work on conservation o f the town’s historical monuments: the ruins of the castle; the granary; the decoration and interior of Celej House. The major difficulties encountered in the conservation activities result from opposition on the part o f real estate owners. Revalorization of Kazimierz is carried on under the auspices of the Minister of Culture and Art, and with the support of the bodies o f state administration, those of regional management and environment protection, and o f voivodship authorities. The Museum has possibilities of employing specialists in various problems and commands of additional financial means which enable taking up of the respective proceedings in consonance with the needs of revalorization. The author concludes his paper in pointing out to the conclusions ensuing to conservation practice from the experience acquired in its activity by the Museum discussed.

The aim of the author is to show problems rankling both the society and services of monuments protection in a small town entered as a whole in a monuments register. Kazimierz Dolny is a unique town; moreover, it has also, for Palish conditions, a long history of conservation protection. The pioneers of conservation services were here activists of the Society for the Protection of the Monuments of the Past which had its circle established in Kazimierz in 1913. The first World War brought about huge devastations in Kazimierz. In the twenty years of the inter-war period the town was not rebuilt. At the end of the thirties Kazimierz was a conglomeration of slumses that emerged fo llo wing poor adaptation of burnt-out and decaying houses and huge buildings which testified former economic and cultural prosperity of the town. Holiday makers and artistic Bohemia coming to Kazimierz for its natural charm and monuments did not bring the latter s any advantage. Until now no organisational or economic mechanisms have been put into operation that would let the society to accept in full undoubted historic values of the town. 14 years after the retirement of K. Sieiński conservation services in Kazimierz were brought to life anew. It was in 1972. On that occasion the local Museum was entrusted with the protection of the historic town and landscape complex. A disquieting fact is an increased number of the phenomena threatening the Palish cultural heritage, just to mention some o f them, such as non-re cognition of the need to enter into a monuments register buildings owned by private persons, the questioning of the decisions on historic values of certain buildings, purposefulness of state expenditures on repair of some of the monuments and fina lly the protection of the monuments destroyed to a high degree. Most of the society protests sharply against the rescue of wooden houses and farm buildings and small wooden architectural structures. Also, major outlays on archaeological, architectonic, conceptual and historic studies give rise to doubts.. Campaigns aimed at the popularization of monuments protection and explaining a complexity of conservation problems have not brought about any expected changes in the social attitude. When trying to adapt an old building to new requirements the individual owner of the building in a historic town has to bear high additional costs such as an individual design proceeded by recording, expensive and hardly available construction materials and high labour costs. Bigger expenses w ill have also to be borne wihen raising new buildings in conformity with the requirements set for new architecture to fit into the ex istin g natural interiors of the town. Part of the historie buildings in the town loses its social utility, just as a mode of life and earning of the local population has changed significantly; some professions do not ex ist any longer, others- just die out. Unfortunately, the presented outlook on the possibility to win the local community of Kazimierz for the cause of the town’s restoration is very pessimistic. The author based this outlook on his ten-year experiences from the work in the surroundings of a small historic town. Undoubtedly, this problem may look quite d ifferently in larger towns and large old-town complexes. Therefore, the author suggests that new system and legal solutions should pay attention to a specific and complex nature of small historic towns where one has to do mostly with private ownership. With these changes in mind, wthen repairing private historic buildings the author would favour an adequate system of non-repayable subsidies and tax reductions; in case of new buildings being put up in historic old-town complexes long-term loans should be granted on easy conditions.

P a rt II P a rt I of the present article published in ’’Ochrona Zabytków” no 1/1978 ended with a discussion of the period of the reconstruction of Kazimierz Dolny soon after World War II. P a rt II is devoted mainly to a land planning in Kazimierz afte r 1951 when Karol Siciński’s plan, worked out still in 1946—47, was approved officially. In the nearly th irty years th a t followed several versions of general and detailed plans of the town were drawn. A review of the plans displays changing views on the fu tu re shape of the town, its function, number of inhabitants and a very differentiated approach to the problem. A p a rticu la r attention paid by town-planners to this little town has always been based on the concern to preserve its unique historic and n a tu ra l values. However, during works on individual stages of the studies, specialists in modern programming, town-planning, sta n dardization and transport solutions have, as a rule, succeeded in forcing th e ir proposals. The state services of monuments protection participated in the planning of Kazimierz only to a small extent; the ir suggestions were either too general or not taken into account at all. In 1966 a general and detailed plan of Kazimierz was thrown open to competition. From the point of view of monuments protection it was not prepared well and did not come to expectations with regard to an optimum solution. On the basis of the results of the competition in 1967— 1970 general and detailed plans of the town were p repared and approved. Also this time conservation guidelines worked out by the Ministry of Culture and Arts were not formulated precisely and the participation of a voivodship conservator was limited to formal actions. As a result th e re appeared a plan with town-planning solutions, transport and servicing in particular, th a t endangered the scale and nature of the town. It envisaged a number of public investments, the harmful of which were: a modern throughfare between the Vistual and the centre of the town, construction of a new road inside the town, parallel to historic Senatorska and Nadrzeczna streets, a roundabout-type and a two-level cross- road in front of the Reformers cloister as well as large service and trad e projects in the place traditionally used for the building of detached houses in gardens, and finally the building of a large rest house on a picturesque hill. Despite that the plans were approved. Then, in 1971— 1972 the local population and manily associations of artists and publicists of the most highly esteemed cultural papers, rose some doubts about them. As a result of this criticism the Ministry of Culture and Arts entrusted in 1972 the Museum at Kazimierz Dolny with a task of conservation protection. This created conditions conducive to the formulation of new criterions of the protection of a historic urban, architectural and natural complex. They consisted in proving that all values of Kazimierz, including those of secondary importance such as old building lines, a scale of the building-up in individual streets, modest small-town houses, paved roads and squares, use of traditional materials, et.c., should be considered and covered by plans. Attention was drawn to the necessity to officially include in protection plans natural surroundings as an integral component of town’s cultural values. This conservation programme was approved by the authorities who decided of the need to bring a general and detailed plan of Kazimierz up-to-date on the basis of new more thorough and comprehensive studies. The Consultants Team was established; it gave opinions on subsequent stages of preparations. The Museum at Kazimierz Dolny brought to life an architectural group whose tasks were to make urban and architectural studies as conservation guidelines for individual elements of the town. A new general plan was drawn by the Voivodship Town-Planning Workshop in Lublin, headed by architect U. Frąk. A detailed plan was prepared by the Monuments Conservation Workshop in Lublin, under the direction of architect J. Jamiołkowska. The two plans were prepared at the same time, with a detailed one being in the foreground. The plans were approved in 1975. They paid a full respect to conservation guidelines expressed in 1972 and at the same time they determined the town’s function as a tourist centre and local administration, solved in-town communication within the existing network of streets with the principle of the access by perpends from the circuit passing by Kazimierz in through traffic. The plan paid also attention to a modern infrastructure in the town, a general character and scale of which remained unchanged. The maximum number of inhabitants within the boundaries of the historic town was agreed to be 3,000 people, just as it was in the period of the town’s flourishing at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries. In 1979 on the basis of the said plans a renewal programme was worked out for the town centre, divided into several stages of its execution. From 1973 the works have been carried out on the protection, conservation and reconstruction of the most valuable monuments of architecture, to mention only granaries from the 17th century, the Celejówka stone-house, ruins of the castle. Basing on the plans, private detached houses are being built in the town, the character of which has been adapted to a historie complex of tenement houses and other buildings. Necessary municipal investments have been undertaken and are continued. Works have been initiated on the designing and execution of the most indispensable buildings for public use. A translocation of historic wooden buildings to Kazimierz and Męćmierz, a neighbouring small village, has been applied as well. The aim of this undertaking is to rescue the monuments that cannot be preserved in situ and to enlarge the number of wooden buildings in the town, according to its old historic nature.

The conservation of two, late Baroque, semi-circularly closed images of nearly identical size, located in the Reformed Franciscan monastery of St. Anthony in Przemyśl, which were thought to present the Communion of Saint Francis and the Veneration of the Cross by Saint Francis, brought about interesting outcomes. It turned out that the images were previously interpreted mistakenly, as they actually present the Communion of Saint Bonaventure and the vision of Saint Francis in Vicalvi (Vision of an angel with an ampoule), typical of the Franciscan post- Trent iconography. The pattern for the image Communion of Saint Bonaventure in the Przemyśl monastery was an engraved reproduction of a painting by A. van Dyck, which was to be created by Pieter Bailliu, an engraver from Antwerp (Balliu; around 1613- after 1660). The creation referred to the Last Communion of Saint Francis by Rubens. According to Carl Justi, the main idea of the presentation was a feeling of humility and a particular dignity of Saint Bonaventure towards the Blessed Sacrament. As a young monk, he attended a mass, but felt too unworthy to receive Holy Communion every day. During the mass, an angel appeared who, after taking a particle of a Host from the hands of a priest celebrating the mass, put it into Bonaventura’s mouth, so that “he knew that it was better to receive the Eucharist with love than to refrain from it for fear”. That pattern was common in Reformed Franciscan churches. The Communion of Saint Bonaventure was created to decorate the sacristy of the church in Pińczów (signature A. N. W. and the date 1717) and as a modello stored in the monastery in Kraków for an uncreated altar picture or sacristy decoration. That scene is also presented in the sacristy of the former Bernardine (now Dominican) church in Św. Anna near Przyrów. The second picture, Vision of an angel with an ampoule, was a reproduction of an engravery by Giovanni Francesco Barbieri called Guercino, presenting the vision of Saint Francis of Vicalvi, referred to as Vision of priestly dignity. The composition, popularized by, among others, the engraveries by Giovanni Battista Pasqualini (1630), was a pattern for painted decorations in the sacristies of Reformed churches in Pińczów, Wieliczka, Kęty and Biecz. According to Raffaell Colace in the article San Francesco e l’angelo con l’ampolla, the image of the saint by Guercino can be interpreted in two ways. On the one hand, in the context of underlining the humility of the saint who considered himself unworthy of being a priest and, on the other hand – the “spotlessness” of priesthood, the value particularly emphasized by the Catholic doctrine after the Council of Trent. The discussed pictures are a typical element of equipment of the sacristies of Reformed churches in the former Lesser Poland province. They were probably connected with the function of that place, in which the liturgical celebration was prepared. It can be presumed that, in the past, the pictures could have been the equipment of the sacristy of the Przemyśl church. It seems to be confirmed by the archival files kept at Reformed Franciscan Province Archives from the 19th century, reporting “great images over the mensa in the sacristy”. The images, created by a local guild artist or an artist from the Order do not manifest significant artistic values. However, they are interesting from the point of view of iconographic values, as a reproduction – through graphic patterns – of renowned works of Guercino and van Dyck, who are among the greatest European painters. Presenting both legendary events from the life of the patriarch of the Order and the main theorist of Franciscan thought was supposed to emphasize the new, post-Trent form of devotion – veneration of Eucharistic Christ and an exceptional dignity of celebrating the Holy Mass. Perhaps the humble attitude of the monks had a moralizing significance in a form of an example for the priesthood in the Reformed Franciscan order. Thus, the presentations are of high historical and cultural importance for the research on the history of the order.

The aim of the article is to supplement the biography of Gizella Gryczyńska, until 1936 Margulies, a Polish architect of Jewish origin. An analysis of archival sources and materials from the Collections of Photographs and Survey Drawings held at the Institute of Art of the Polish Academy of Sciences has made it possible to present her activity in the field of inventorying historical monuments. The article describes Gizella Gryczyńska's participation in the inventory-taking action conducted in the years 1933–1934 in Kazimierz Dolny under the aegis of the Society for the Protection of the Monuments of the Past in the framework of the governmental Labour Fund. At the same time, search queries conducted in the State Archive in Kielce and in the Student Records Division of the Warsaw University of Technology revealed a number of hitherto unknown source materials that shed new light on Gryczyńska's professional activity and personal life after the year 1936. Thus, it has been possible to present her achievements in a new perspective, taking under consideration the economic and social context of the era.

Celem artykułu jest uzupełnienie biografii Gizelli Gryczyńskiej (do 1936 r. używającej panieńskiego nazwiska Margulies) - polskiej architektki pochodzenia żydowskiego. Analiza źródeł archiwalnych oraz materiałów zgromadzonych w Zbiorach Fotografii i Rysunków Pomiarowych Instytutu Sztuki PAN umożliwiła zaprezentowanie aktywności Gizelli Gryczyńskiej na polu inwentaryzacji zabytków. W artykule omówiono jej udział w akcji inwentaryzacyjnej w Kazimierzu Dolnym, prowadzonej w latach 1933–1934 pod egidą Towarzystwa Opieki nad Zabytkami Przeszłości w ramach rządowego Funduszu Pracy. Jednoczenie dzięki kwerendom w Archiwum Państwowym w Kielcach oraz Dziale Ewidencji Studentów Politechniki Warszawskiej udało się ujawnić szereg nieznanych dotąd materiałów źródłowych, rzucających nowe światło na działalność zawodową i życie osobiste Gizelli Gryczyńskiej po 1936 r., a tym samym ukazać dorobek życiowy bohaterki artykułu w odmiennej perspektywie, z uwzględnieniem kontekstu ekonomicznego i społecznego tamtych czasów.
