Cold light in the painting ‘Group portrait in the Chemist’s House’.
by Alicja Rafalska-Lasocha, Wieslaw Lasocha, Anna Jasinska
"In 2005 the Jagiellonian University Museum mounted the exhibition Uczony i jego pracownia / The Scholar and His Study, which was opened from 11th May to 28th August. Among the paintings borrowed from numerous museums in Poland, and scientific instruments chiefly from the collections of the Jagiellonian University Museum, was a picture by a 17th century Dutch artist, Cornelis de Man. It is the property of the National Museum in Warsaw, on permanent display in the Gallery of Foreign Paintings... Alchemists treated light as a symbol of the spirit and were particularly interested in the light imprisoned in matter."
