Specialist note

The former relates to the picture in the Royal Castle, Warsaw. The latter relates to the full-length portrait, in reverse, in the State Art Collection Wawel, Cracow. There also exists a half-length portrait by an unknown Polish artist from the 17th century that closely relates to the latter picture.
