Trinitologia picta on the Example of Polychromy in the Church of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Kalisz Research Programme

Summary/Abstract: The polychrome of the Bernardine church in Kalisz (now the Jesuit church) is rich in Trinitarian themes. Trinitarian motifs and symbols are presented most abundantly in the nave. The wall paintings of the presbytery and the nave painted by brother Walenty Żebrowski, Bernardine. These paintings are from the late Baroque. The polychrome of Kalisz is the last work of this Bernardine. W. Żebrowski worked not only in Kalisz, but also for the Bernardine churches in Poznań, Kadyny, Wschowa, Skępe, Warta, Ostrołęka, Warszawa and probably in Owińska, Ostrzeszów and maybe in Łęczyca too. He was particularly famous as a landscapist. Although the article shows Trinitarian motifs and symbols on the wall paintings in the Bernardine church in Kalisz, it also shows the arti- stic activity of W. Żebrowski in the mentioned big and small towns and villages.
