I LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY in the History Meeting House

I LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY in the History Meeting House
Wojtkuszki, August 1902. Photo: Stanisław Kazimierz Kossakowski. From collection of M. K. Čiurlionis National Art Museum in Kaunas
Playing with forms and conventions and experimenting with light and background - it's a brief shot of 130 outstanding photographs from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries never known in Poland, which will be displayed on the exhibition "I love photography. Portrait of an era through the lens of Stanisław Kazimierz Kossakowski".

In the History Meeting House you will find the documentary photography from the Kaunas region and from Warsaw, the places important in the artist’s life, as well as staged genre scenes, architecture and interior photography, beautiful landscape pictures, and especially sophisticated individual and group portraits. The photographs of Stanisław Kazimierz Kossakowski are not only of large historical value, documenting the epoch that have irretrievably gone with the First and Second World Wars and its social and geopolitical changes, but they also constitute a great artistic revelation. Therefore, on 20 September at 6 p.m., we would like to invite you all to the opening of the exhibition:
