European art collection at Europeum in Krakow entrance tickets

The exhibition presents seven centuries worth of the history of European art, utilizing over 100 paintings and sculptures. This collection was gathered since the founding of the Museum through the year 1879, mainly as gifts, and was not initially covered with a specific policy, as the Museum was focused mainly on the Polish works of art. The situation changed after the World War II, when the Museum acquired outstanding Western European paintings and sculptures, such as The Crucifixion by Paolo Veneziano, Lorenzo Lotto’s Adoration of the Child, Pieter Breughel the Younger’s The Sermon of St. John the Baptist, a French 14th-century sculpture of Madonna with the Child or The Bishop’s Bust, created ca in 1500 in the Netherlands.
