Elevation of the south flank

Elevation of the south wing of Łańcut Castle from the side of the main courtyard The photograph shows the façade of the 17th-century south wing of Łańcut Castle from the side of the main courtyard. In this wing, there is a passage gate closed with a semicircular arcade, leading to the courtyard. Above the gate is a 17th-century cartouche with a shield with coats of arms. The façade wall by the vestibule is covered with vines. The photograph was taken by Dr Józef Piotrowski (1873–1939), a Lviv art historian. From 1 June 1920 to 1929, he served as a conservator at the Lviv Voivodeship Office (see Piotr Lasek, Inwentaryzacja zabytków architektury w lwowskim okręgu konserwatorskim 1920-1939. Szkice z dziejów, Warsaw: Instytut Sztuki PAN, 2020, pp. 32–62). He was the author of the study Zamek w Łańcucie. Zwięzły opis dziejów i zbiorów (1933) and the author of photographic documentation of the Łańcut Castle, its interiors and collections, today owned by the Łańcut Castle Museum (among others, albums, volumes I-X, Lviv 1936) and the Institute of Art of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw (albums, volumes I-IX, Lviv 1929).
