Wyspiański ranks among other turn of the century artists like Klimt and Gaudi in terms of influence, vision and cultural relevance, especially locally. In an impressive feat, the National Museum in Kraków has gathered the largest and most valuable collection of the artist’s works - approximately 900 pieces. As part of the largest display of the artist’s works over the past 50 years in Poland, 500 of these works will be available for viewing - drawings, portraits, and landscapes, as well as scenographic, typographic, and ornamental designs (some of which were made for high-profile clients in Krakow). Of course, there will be plenty of pastels - a medium he mastered and has become best known for.
