EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Portrait of King Władysław IV Waza of Poland (1595-1648) by Marcello Bacciarelli (1731-1818)" 2. Description: This portrait depicts Władysław IV Waza, King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, in the prime of his life. Painted between 1782 and 1783 by the renowned Italian artist Marcello Bacciarelli, the artwork is currently housed in the Royal Castle in Warsaw. 3. Background: Władysław IV, a member of the Vasa dynasty, ruled Poland and Lithuania from 1632 until his death in 1648. Known for his strong leadership and diplomatic skills, he was a significant figure in European politics during the Thirty Years' War. 4. Setting: The portrait shows Władysław IV dressed in the regal attire of a European monarch, with a solemn expression on his face. The background is simple, with a plain, dark background that emphasizes the king's features and the artist's mastery of technique. 5. Artistic Style: Bacciarelli, an accomplished Neoclassical painter, expertly captures the essence of Władysław IV's character in this portrait. The use of oil on copper lends the painting a rich, vibrant texture and depth. 6. Historical Context: During the late 18th century, Poland was under the influence of neighboring powers, including Russia. This portrait of Władysław IV, painted during this period, may have been commissioned by the Russian Court, as Michael I of Russia (Mikhail Fyodorovich Romanov, 1654-1721) was a contemporary of Władysław IV and had close ties with Poland. The Hypatian Monastery in Kiev, which was under Russian control, is known to have owned a copy of this portrait. 7. Significance: This portrait of Władysław IV Waza is a testament to the rich artistic and historical legacy of Poland and Europe during the early modern period. It offers valuable insights into the life and reign of an influential monarch and the political landscape of the time.
