About the piece
Painted in 1838 by Marcin Jabłoński, this formal oil portrait depicts Reverend Jan Szafrański with a steady, thoughtful gaze. The artist masterfully captures the luminous sheen of the subject's purple silk robes and the intricate craftsmanship of his ceremonial cross, creating a sense of both individual character and ecclesiastical authority.
