The initial collection was formed in 1796 in Puławy by Princess Izabela Czartoryska. The Museum officially opened in 1878. It is now a division of the National Museum in Kraków.\n\nThe Puławy collection was partly destroyed after the November 1830 Uprising and the confiscation of the Czartoryski properties. Most of the Museum holdings, however, were saved and moved to Paris, where they reposed at the Hôtel Lambert. In 1870 Prince Władysław Czartoryski decided to move the collections to Kraków, where they arrived in 1876.\n\nThe most renowned painting at the Museum is one of Leonardo da Vinci's best-known works, the Lady with an Ermine. Other highlights include two works by Rembrandt; several antiquities, including sculptures; Renaissance tapestries and decorative arts; and paintings by Hans Holbein the Younger, Jacob Jordaens, Luca Giordano, Pieter Brueghel the Younger, Dieric Bouts, Joos van Cleve, Lorenzo Lotto, Lucas Cranach the Younger, Lorenzo Monaco, Andrea Mantegna, Alessandro Magnasco, and the Master of the Female Half-Lengths.\n\nThe Museum's main facility closed for restoration in 2010 and reopened in December 2019. During this time, parts of the collection were displayed at other venues.","czartoryski-museum\u002Fbackground\u002Fczartoryski-museum_background","czartoryski-museum\u002Flogo\u002Fczartoryski-museum_logo","+48 12 370 54 66",26,"https:\u002F\u002Fmnk.pl\u002Fen\u002F","Czartoryski_Museum",[30],"leonardo-da-vinci\u002Flady-with-an-ermine\u002Flady-with-an-ermine",{"items":32,"total":49,"page":84,"pageSize":85,"totalPages":49},[33],{"title":34,"id":35,"artists":36,"slug":52,"date":53,"description":54,"height":55,"image":30,"inPrivateCollection":56,"isLocationUnknown":56,"originalTitle":57,"popularity":58,"width":59,"wikipediaId":60,"collections":61,"genres":62,"museum":67,"movements":70,"mediums":79},"Lady with an Ermine","38b388e5-b30d-4dfc-9a18-5f6a6cd084d3",[37],{"name":38,"id":39,"nationality":40,"slug":44,"biography":45,"born":46,"death":47,"image":48,"popularity":49,"sex":50,"wikipediaId":51},"Leonardo da Vinci","73481ec6-d6be-4779-92dc-f44dbf7796a1",{"id":41,"name":42,"slug":43},"b6bd06f3-e4d0-44e5-b3d4-dfdf235eec5d","Italian","italian","leonardo-da-vinci","Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) was an Italian polymath whose brilliance spanned art, science, engineering, anatomy, architecture, and invention. Born on April 15, 1452, in the Tuscan town of Vinci, he was the illegitimate son of Ser Piero da Vinci, a notary, and Caterina, a peasant woman. Despite his informal status, Leonardo received a solid artistic and technical education after being apprenticed at around age 14 to Andrea del Verrocchio in Florence. Under Verrocchio, he learned painting, sculpture, mechanics, metalworking, and drafting, skills that laid the foundation for his multidisciplinary achievements.\n\nLeonardo’s early works already showed exceptional observational ability and mastery of technique. His “Annunciation” and contribution to Verrocchio’s “Baptism of Christ” highlighted his innovative use of light, shadow, and naturalism. By the 1480s, Leonardo accepted a position in Milan under Duke Ludovico Sforza. There he produced some of his most celebrated works, including “The Last Supper,” a mural that revolutionized narrative composition and emotional expression. During his Milanese years, Leonardo also designed military machines, hydraulic systems, architectural projects, and theatrical devices.\n\nHis notebooks reveal a mind constantly exploring the mechanics of nature. He dissected human and animal bodies to understand anatomy with unprecedented accuracy, producing studies of muscles, organs, and embryonic development. He investigated optics, flight, geology, and the movement of water. Though many of his engineering designs—such as flying machines, armored vehicles, and automated mechanisms—were never built during his lifetime, they demonstrated astonishing foresight and mechanical ingenuity.\n\nAfter Milan fell to invading forces in 1499, Leonardo traveled through Italy, working in Mantua, Venice, and Florence. During this period he began the “Mona Lisa,” perhaps the most famous painting in the world, noted for its subtle modeling, enigmatic expression, and pioneering technique of soft transitions known as sfumato. He also produced significant scientific texts and anatomical drawings, including studies of the human skull and cardiovascular system.\n\nLeonardo returned to Milan in 1506, working under French rule and continuing both artistic and scientific pursuits. In his later years, invited by King Francis I of France, he moved to the Château du Clos Lucé near Amboise. There he served as “Premier Painter and Engineer” to the king, focusing more on engineering, architecture, and scientific study than painting.\n\nLeonardo died on May 2, 1519, leaving behind thousands of pages of sketches and notes. Although only a relatively small number of his paintings survive, his legacy is immense. His ability to fuse art and science, his method of direct observation, and his visionary imagination have made him an enduring symbol of the Renaissance ideal of the universal genius.","1452-04-14","1519-05-02","leonardo-da-vinci\u002Fleonardo-da-vinci",1,"MALE","Leonardo_da_Vinci","lady-with-an-ermine","1489–1491","The Lady with an Ermine is a portrait painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci.

It is the second of only four surviving portraits of women painted by Leonardo, the others being Ginevra de' Benci, La Belle Ferronnière and the Mona Lisa.\n\nLady with an Ermine is now housed at the Czartoryski Museum in Kraków, and is one of Poland's national treasures.
