Journal Title: Biuletyn Biblioteki Jagiellońskiej - Year 2016, Vol 66, Issue
Abstract
Zofia Stryjeńska was one of the most famous Polish art déco painters. Known mainly for her work in the applied arts, she was very well known in Poland before World War II. In 1945 she left her native land to live abroad. It was only in 2014 that some of her manuscripts – which had been preserved by Stryjeńska’s closest family in Switzerland – were donated to the Jagiellonian Library. This donation consists of 57 units (BJ, sygn. rkps Przyb. 108–164/15) and includes Stryjeńska’s personal papers, her memoirs, fragments of her various works (inter alia her sketchbook, the manuscript of a scenario for the ballet Korowaj and sketches of the costumes for that ballet), her correspondence, press cuttings (mainly reviews and reproductions of Stryjeńska's works) and family notes and documents. The legacy of Zofia Stryjeńska was displayed at an exhibition entitled Stryjeńska. A Portrait Made of Words which was held at the Jagiellonian Library from 19th November to 18th December 2015. Stryjeńska’s nephew and her other heirs subsequently donated more items to the Library, which enriched the collection (shelfmarks: rkps Przyb. 217/05, 34–36/16, 39/16).
