About the piece
Painted in 1858 by Aleksander Raczyński, this genre scene captures a convivial moment among three men dressed in traditional Polish 'kontusz' and 'żupan' attire. Set within a dimly lit, atmospheric interior, the work highlights the rich textures of the historical costumes and the social customs of the era, rendered with a sophisticated use of shadow and warm, earthy tones.
