The works of Jan Matejko are a testimony to the artist's strong relationship with Krakow. As a distinguished citizen of the city, a pioneer in art history and a committed defender of monuments, the painter participated in the opening of the tombs of Polish kings in the Wawel Cathedral – the former royal church of the Piast and Jagiellonian families.
