Salvete Omnes,
looking at the presented collection I have decided to add more images
of eagles, the symbol of Polish Crown and people, and of Madonna
the Holiest of Holy or our Queen of Poland - the Black Madonna of Jasna Gora Monastery - on these gorgets
Madonna from Koden with a votive plate on the right and next to it a votive plate from 1611, note the lance shaft being used as a shaft for the cross and religious flag, also hussar swords shown as the noblemen's arms
a votive plate - Madonna with Child with an eagle on her bossom
a White Eagle from Wachock
most likely XVIII c winged hussar armor and XVI century kapalin helmet (for a retainer perhaps)
a sword - karabela
a mace - bulawa -
a piernacz mace
a kufel (beer stein)
powder flask and spoon and its carrying case
a cartridge box of the Saxon kings period- most likely it was the Polish soldiers who invented those cartridge boxes in the XVI century - friend of mine from the National Museum in Warsaw is writing his dissertation on this very subejct
a lamp

Glories of Old Poland by pen & brush of Wladyslaw Sztolcman
Salvete Omnes,
again I am searching FBC and this time I found this collection Dominika Jeżewskiego Skarbiec Zabytków Polskich znajdujących się w prywatnych zbiorach Warszawy, malował z natury Władysław Sztolcman od r. 1909 -
Warsaw-domiciled draughtsman and painter Władysław Roman Sztolcman (1873-1950) was hired by a well know Varsovian collector or art and antiques Dominik Witke-Jeżewski (1862-1944) to draw and paint the artifacts in private collections in Warsaw etc (then Russian Poland since 1815). You can see the surviving plates in the already mentioned Warsaw National Museum site.
these are some of the palates from the collection - drawn with unrivaled attention to detail and splendid in their beauty
winged hussar's armor,



swords,
maces,
war-hammers,
gorgets,
standard / banner,
hussar kopia (lance) in a form of a hetman's lance,
an eagle allegedly from the Jan III Sobieski's pistol holster,
and finally
kontusz sashes
