Portrait galleries of bishops have been known in the Latin Christendom since the early Middle Ages, attesting the important role that the ius imaginum – originally a major privilege of Roman patricians – had played in the propaganda of the Church. Of the thirteen portraits that have survived to this day in the portrait gallery of the cloisters of the Franciscan friary in Krakow, a unique example of its kind, the paper concentrates on selected examples, e.g. portraits of two prominent bishops from the early modern era, Samuel Maciejowski (1545 – 1550) and Franciszek Krasinski (1572 – 1577).
