Wrocław Panorama Racławicka, Poland


Foto
GB
The Panorama is not just a painting, it's a pilgrimage. The 140m-long canvas depicts the legendary General Tadeusz Kościuszko's victory over the Russian forces at Racławice in 1794, and took just over nine months to complete. Polish insurgents win the battle, but the uprising comes to nought and Poland won't be truly self-governing until the early 20th century. The painting was born in Lwów (now Lviv, Ukraine) a hundred years after the battle. Painters Jan Styka and Wojciech Kossak wanted to create a monument to Polish national spirit. Their work, displayed in a rotunda built especially for it, was a popular - and financial - success. After World War II, the Soviet Union, which had absorbed the city of Lviv, sent the painting to Wrocław. Its subject, however, was a bit too nationalistic for the local Communist authorities, who rejected several bids to display it. The current building was completed in 1967, but the Panorama itself was not installed for display until 1985.

Il panorama non è solo un dipinto, è un pellegrinaggio. La tela lunga 140 metri che illustra la vittoria leggendaria del generale Tadeusz Kościuszko sulle forze russe a Racławice nel 1794 è stata completata in poco più di nove mesi. Gli insorti polacchi vincono la battaglia, ma la ribellione viene meno e la Polonia non sarà veramente indipendente fino all'inizio del XX secolo. Il dipinto è nato a Lwów (ora Lviv, Ucraina) cento anni dopo la battaglia. I pittori Jan Styka e Wojciech Kossak volevano creare un monumento allo spirito nazionale polacco. Il loro lavoro, esposto in una rotonda costruita appositamente, è stato un successo sia popolare che finanziario. Dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale, l'Unione Sovietica, che aveva assorbito la città di Lviv, ha inviato il dipinto a Wrocław. Il suo tema, tuttavia, era un po’ troppo nazionalista per le autorità comuniste locali del tempo, le quali respinsero diverse offerte per presentare l’opera. L'edificio attuale è stato completato nel 1967, ma il Panorama stesso non è stato reso pubblico fino al 1985.
