About the piece
Created in 1889 by the renowned Polish artist Jan Matejko, this drawing served as a preparatory study for the polychromy of St. Mary's Church in Kraków. The work features an angel playing a flute, rendered with confident draftsmanship on a warm, aged paper ground. Its combination of religious iconography and academic technique creates a piece that is both spiritually resonant and intellectually sophisticated.
