The first historical ruler of the Polish lands, the actual creator of the Polish statehood. A skilful politician and a talented leader. He fought battles for Western Pomerania and wars with Bohemia, conquering Silesia and Lesser Poland. By being baptised in 966, he strengthened the state, putting it on a par with the Christian countries of Europe. He established a Polish bishopric in Gniezno, and initiated the construction of numerous fortified towns and churches.

Description

Edition in the form of a stylized scroll with a wax seal suspended on strings. It is printed on decorative paper, similar in texture and properties to the handmade papers used in the old days. An additional characteristic element of the publication are the jagged edges of the sheet, which are stylistically reminiscent of old incunabula affected by the tooth of time. As in all our wall publications, the paper is coated with a finishing matte laminate on both sides, which strengthens it and protects it from moisture and dust. In addition, this treatment makes the scroll more similar to the original parchment. The sheet is wound on wooden rollers topped with knobs with metal fittings. The whole is reminiscent of the scrolls of Roman scriptures or Jewish torah. Author’s binding by Pergamena Publishing House with decorative string for hanging.
