A Genealogical Tree of Polish Rulers
This is a board of exceptional educational and decorative values. It beautifully and vividly shows the pedigrees of the Piasts, Jagiellons, elected kings, their coats of arms, marriages, dates of reign. Colorful engravings on the board refer to the founding myth of the Polish state from the legend of Lech, Czech and Rus, symbolically depict Polish landscapes and historical cities: Gniezno, Cracow, Warsaw. Additional instructive enrichment of the publication are portraits of rulers based on drawings by Jan Matejko. We have included them in side cartouches and provided short biographical notes.
