Before the outbreak of WW II, the works of world art collected at the Wilanów Palace were considered to be the largest private collection in the Polish territories. Just the very collection of painting featured 1.200 exhibits. Apart from them the Wilanów collection contained historic furniture, old coins, textiles, artistic craftsmanship items, drawings, and prints, pottery, glassware, silverware, bronzes, sculptures, as well as mementoes of Polish rulers. Already in the first weeks of the German occupation, assigned officials selected the most precious art works from the Wilanów collections, and included them in the Sichergestellte Kunstwerke im Generalgouvernement Catalogue. The publication presented the most precious cultural goods secured by the Germans in the territory of occupied Poland. It included 76 items: 29 paintings and 47 artistic craftsmanship objects. In 1943, the majority of the works included in the quoted Catalogue were transferred to Cracow. A year later, the most valuable exhibits from Wilanów were evacuated to Lower Silesia. What remained in Cracow was only a part of the collection relocated from Wilanów. The chaos of the last weeks preceding the fall of the Third Reich caused that many art works from the Wilanów collection are considered war losses. Among many objects, included in the above Catalogue, there are several Wilanów paintings: Portrait of a Man by Bartholomeus van der Helst, Portrait of a Married Couple by Pieter Nason, Allegory of Architecture, Painting, and Sculpture by Pompeo Batoni, Allegorical Scene in Landscape by Paris Bordone, and The Assumption of Mary by Charles Le Brun.

The authoress presents three women associated with Wilanów. Elżbieta Sieniawska (1668/69 – 1729), wife of Adam the grand hetman of the Crown and Kraków castellan, was one of the most influential women of the time of August II. The scale of her activity was large. She was involved in political, economic, cultural and artistic life. She bought Wilanów in 1720 because it provided prestige to the Sieniawski family as the owners of the formerresidence of King Sobieski. The only daughter of magnates, Maria Zofia Denhoff, was the heir to a great fortune, for which she was well prepared to manage. In 1730, she leased Wilanów to King August II. After his death in 1733, Wilanów returned again to Maria Zofia and her second husband August Czartoryski. Elżbieta Drużbacka, a trusted client of the Sieniawski family, poet, confidante of Maria Zofia, may have been to the palace in Wilanów. Siemiginowski’s plafonds "Four Seasons" found there could draw inspiration for the poem "Opisanie czterech części roku" (Describing the four parts of the year).

Autorka prezentuje trzy kobiety związane z Wilanowem. Elżbieta Sieniawska, żona hetmana wielkiego koronnego i kasztelana krakowskiego Adama, była jedną z najbardziej wpływowych kobiet czasów Augusta II. Skala jej aktywności była duża. Angażowała się w życie polityczne, ekonomiczne, kulturalne i artystyczne. Kupiła w 1720 r Wilanów, ponieważ zapewniał prestiż Sieniawskim, jako właścicielom dawnej rezydencji króla Sobieskiego. Jedyna córka magnatów, Maria Zofia Denhoff, była spadkobierczynią wielkiej fortuny, do której zarządzania była dobrze przez matkę przygotowana. W 1730 r. oddała Wilanów w dzierżawę królowi Augustowi II. Po jego śmierci w 1733 r. Wilanów powrócił znów do Marii Zofii i jej drugiego męża Augusta Czartoryskiego. Elżbieta Drużbacka, zaufana klientka Sieniawskich, poetka, powiernica Marii Zofii może bywała w pałacu w Wilanowie. Ze znajdujących się tam plafonów "Czterech Pór Roku" Siemiginowskiego mogła czerpać inspirację do poematu "Opisanie czterech części roku".
