    Anna Dorota Chrzanowska in the Castle at Trembowla

    (best viewed by Google Chrome which can automatically translate most pages as necessary) has info and links that point to info about this roughly A1 paper size painting.

    http://dzielautracone.gov.pl/en/news/114-the-loveliest-bow-in-polish-painting-delights-once-again-at-the-silesian-museum-in-katowice 

    all have info about this artist (the first 2 in Polish, again, Chrome can automatically translate – Bing may do better in this case), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here.

     

    Again, a slightly larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2060 (October 14, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.

    The story goes that she threatened suicide if they surrendered to the Turks. I guess the second sword was in case the first one missed.

    She always seemed to be at her worst when she was sleep walking.

    The story behind this painting is of one gutsy woman. “Captain Chrzanowski decided to surrender. His wife disagreed with this decision, and threatened to commit suicide if her husband proceeded with the planned surrender, thereby stiffening his spine and creating an atmosphere for defending the castle.“ See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Trembowla.
