The role of portraits copied with the use of mechanical reproduction techniques played in the praxis of the rule of King of Poland Sigismund I the Old (1507-1548) is analysed; the effigies included the King and his family members, and were copied on prints, coins, medals, as well as book  bindings. The portraits of the type were created with the recipients from outside the narrow circle at the Cracow court in mind; executed in larger numbers of copies, they were meant to reach the public who did not stay in direct contact with the monarch, often even unaware of  what he looked like. The identification of the portrayed individuals was to a higher degree than in the case of traditional portraits dependent on conventional media, such as inscriptions, signs, or the applied presentation formula. The ideological sense contained in those elements has been analysed, and an attempt has been made to ascertain models and/or inspiration sources for respective works.

Celem artykułu jest ustalenie roli, jaką w praktyce sprawowania władzy przez króla Polski Zygmunta I Starego (1507-1548) odgrywały portrety powielane za sprawą mechanicznych technik reprodukcji (wizerunki króla i członków jego rodziny na drukach, monetach, medalach i oprawach ksiąg). Portrety tego typu powstawały z myślą o odbiorcach spoza wąskiego grona krakowskiego dworu, wykonywano je w większej liczbie egzemplarzy z myślą o dotarciu do odbiorców nie mających bezpośredniego kontaktu z monarchą, a częstokroć nawet nieznających jego wyglądu. Określenie w nich tożsamości portretowanych osób, w stopniu znacznie wyższym niż w przypadku tradycyjnych konterfektów, było uzależnione od konwencjonalnych środków przekazu, takich jak inskrypcje, znaki oraz zastosowane formuły obrazowe. Analizie poddano sens ideowy zawarty w tych elementach oraz podjęto próbę ustalenia wzorów i/lub źródeł inspiracji dla poszczególnych dzieł.

The article focuses on the binding of the incunabulum from the book collection of one of the greatest Polish Renaissance bibliophiles, Jan Lubrański Bishop of Poznań. The great value of this historical monument, discovered in 2012 in the Library of the Seminary in Włocławek, results from the fact that it is one of the few volumes that remained from hierarch’s extensive book collection, and also the only one, so far discovered, marked with his supralibros. The article starts with a biographical outline of Bishop Lubrański, with special attention paid to his bibliophilic activity. Then, the author presents a detailed formal and stylistic analysis of the binding against the background of bookbinding of the Polish leading centers in this fi eld in the late fi fteenth and sixteenth centuries. The result is the hypotheses concerning the time and place of its creation, which point to the unknown bookbinding workshop in Cracow or Poznań, operating in the fi rst two decades of the sixteenth century. Finally, the author attempts to trace the history of the book from the time of Lubrański up to its discovery in the collections of Włocławek.
