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

swords,

maces,

war-hammers,

Short intro to the historic Polish Fencing

Salve,
just a short post about the historic Polish Fencing

Silkfencing Team from Poland prepared quite comprehensive video presentation on the development of the Old Poland fencing techniques.
From the Ottoman to German & Italian ( Medieval and XVI-XVII centuries) techniques and equipment to the fully developed Polish winged hussar szabla (saber) and late one with furdament, and then that Polish saber influence on the rest of Europe - Austrian empire, Britain, Prussia, France etc

the film is subtitled in English, and it is not a bad translation - congrats to the Silkfencing Team.
