About the artwork
Franciszek Siedlecki is the artist behind "Kolumna Zygmunta w nocy", dated 1905-1906. It is listed in the Illustration collection. The image is in portrait orientation. Background on Illustration: Printing methods such as woodcut, engraving, lithography, and photomechanical reproduction each shaped how illustrators worked. The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are often described as a golden age of book and magazine illustration. Context for 1905-1906: The first decades of the twentieth century were a period of rapid experiment, with Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Futurism, and the first abstract painting appearing within a few years of each other. Posters, magazines, and illustrated books were major ways for the public to meet new art and design.
