From Zenon Przesmycki’s Norwidian Archive (2): descriptions of drawings from Konstancja Górska’s album

Abstracts

PL

The article gives a catalogue list of the missing collection of Norwid's artistic works that once belonged to Konstancja Górska; the list was compiled by Zenon Przesmycki in 1914. The collection numbered nearly 80 sketches and drawings. It was the greatest collection of the known collections of artistic Norwidiana built up by a person belonging to the poet's closest circle of friends. Przesmycki's list comprises detailed descriptions of drawings made by the author of Solo in Konstancja Górska's private album (69 drawings) and descriptions of 11 loose works accompanying the album. Górska's collection was characterized by the fact that it included items dealing with a great variety of subjects. There were religious, legendary-literary, fantastic-symbolic and genre compositions in it. Portraits were a particularly numerous group; the group included, among others, portraits of Adam Mickiewicz, Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski, Maria Kalergis, Zygmunt Krasiński, Henryk Kamieński, Józef Bohdan Zaleski, and also the portrait of the owner of the album, as well as two self-portraits. The editorial elaboration of Przesmycki's text has been preceded by introductory remarks containing a description of the collection and specifying the circumstances of its gathering.
