Twórcą ołtarza, który został ściśle dopasowany do gotyckiego prezbiterium, był snycerz z Nieświeża Henryk Küntzow. Wykonał on ołtarz dwukondygnacyjny i pozłacany, zapewne oparty o schemat łuku triumfalnego. Powstanie takiej struktury z jednej strony wiązało się z przemianami we wnętrzach świątyń w duchu kontrreformacji, a z drugiej strony wpisywało się w doposażanie katedry wileńskiej przed uroczystościami przeniesienia relikwii św. Kazimierza do nowo wzniesionej kaplicy – sanktuarium (1636). The article cites a valuable source for the early-Baroque, unpreserved decoration of Vilnius Cathedral, which was destroyed in 1655, when the five-year occupation of Vilnius by Moscow troops began. The creator of the altarpiece, which was visually matched to the Gothic chancel, was a woodcarver from Nyasvizh, Henryk Küntzow. He made a two-tiered, gilded altarpiece, probably based on the scheme of a triumphal arch. The creation of such a structure, on the one hand, was associated with changes in the interiors of churches in the spirit of the Counter-Reformation, and on the other hand, was part of the retrofitting of the Vilnius Cathedral prior to the celebration of the transfer of the relics of St Casimir to the newly erected chapel-sanctuary (1636).
- ItemNiezrealizowane wileńskie zamówienie warszawskiej firmy „J. Szpetkowski i Spółka” – dokument z archiwum antokolskiego(Wydawnictwo KUL, 2014) Czyż, Anna S.W drugiej połowie XIX wieku nastąpiła intensyfikacja kontaktów artystycznych między Warszawą a Wilnem, czego przykładem jest list (18 V 1903 r.) z archiwum klasztoru i kościoła pw. śś. Piotra i Pawła na Antokolu w Wilnie, które obecnie znajduje się w Vilniaus Arkivyskupijos Kurija Archyvas. Adresatem listu był ostatni antokolski kanonik regularny laterański – ks. Franciszek Zawadzki, który w latach 1903-1904 prowadził remont świątyni. Prace obejmowały także kwestię uporządkowania dwóch ołtarzy u wejścia do prezbiterium. W tym miejscu ustawione były pierwotnie dwa snycerskie ołtarze ufundowane przez dobrodzieja wileńskich kanoników regularnych laterańskich Michała Kazimierza Paca. Nowe ołtarze miały wykonać warszawskie zakłady artystyczno-kościelne „J. Szpetkowski i Spółka”, które w tamtym czasie realizowały wiele wystrojów świątyń na terenie dawnego Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego. Z powodu kłopotów finansowych parafii, mimo rozpoczęcia prac, ołtarze ostatecznie nie zostały zrealizowane. Warszawski zakład wysłał jednak do Wilna figurę św. Franciszka, która do co najmniej 1939 r. znajdowała się w jednym z ołtarzy u wejścia do prezbiterium. In the second half of the nineteenth century there was an increase in artistic contacts between Warsaw and Vilnius, as exemplified by the letter (18 May 1903) from the Archive of the Monastery and Church dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul in Antakalnis in Vilnius, which is now located in Vilnius Arkivyskupijos Kurija Archyvas. The addressee of the letter was the last canon regular of the Lateran from Antakalnis – Rev. Franciszek Zawadzki, who in 1903-1904 carried out the renovation of the church. The works also included the issue of ordering two altars at the entrance to the chancel. In that place there were originally two woodcarving altars donated by the benefactor of the Vilnius Canons Regular of the Lateran, Michał Kazimierz Pac. The new altars were to be performed by Warsaw artistic and ecclesiastical firm “J. Szpetkowski and Company“, which at that time performed a great number of decors in churches in the area of the former Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Due to the financial problems of the parish, despite the fact that the works began, the altars were not finally finished. The Warsaw company, however, sent the statue of St. Francis to Vilnius, and that figure was in one of the altars at the entrance to the chancel at least to 1939.
- ItemProgram ikonograficzny wystroju wnętrza kościoła pw. Wniebowzięcia Najświętszej Maryi Panny i św. Augustyna w Kraśniku (wiek XVII i XVIII)(Wydawnictwo KUL, 2017) Czyż, Anna S.Modern furnishings of the church dedicated to the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Augustine in Kraśnik were created over three hundred years. However, the oldest trace of the decor from the 16th century is scant. In the first half of the 17th century they were exchanged, and it was at the time when the monastery in Kraśnik joined the Cracow Congregation. The 1630s were particularly important in the creation of the new decor of the church as the following things were founded: choir stalls, including collator ones, paintings by Dolabella as well as the high altar and brotherhood’s one. The above-mentioned elements of the interior were means of conveying the most important themes: canonic (Ordo apostolicus, the patrons of the Cracow Congregation), Passion, Eucharistic, Marian (including SalvatorMundi and MaterMisericordiae) as well as patronal. It cannot be ruled out that intensive artistic investment was connected with the plan to convene the General Chapter in Kraśnik in 1635. In the following decades, especially in the mid-eighteenth centuries, the interior was supplemented and developed, within the aforementioned themes, through the foundations of new altars, a pulpit and paintings in the chancel. Comparing the themes of the church decoration in Krasnik with other churches of the Canons Regular of the Cracow Congregation, it should be noted that they are typical. They referred to monastic life, including the spirituality of the canons and the "primacy" of the congregation, as well as the pastoral ministry being developed on the basis of Passion, Eucharistic and Marian themes. They were presented in the context of the changes taking place in the life of the Church after the Council of Trent, the trend which was also adopted by the Cracow Congregation of Corpus Christi, which co-created a new model of the sacred art in the Republic of Poland.
- ItemZ biblioteki proboszcza antokolskiego ks. Benedykta Szamotulskiego(Wydawnictwo KUL, 2011) Czyż, Anna S.The article presents five books, which were in possession of the Rev. Benedykt Szamotulski (1620-1686), one of the most active Canons Regular of the Lateral in the seventeenth–century Republic of Poland, the parish priest of the St Peter and St Paul’s Church in the Antakalnis in Vilnius. These are the titles which were identified thanks to the ownership entries: Andreae Alciati Emblemata cum commentariis Claudii Minois I. C. Francisci Sanctii Brocensis et Notis Laurentii Pignorii Patavini… (published in Padua in 1621), Vox turturis seu de Florenti usque ad nostra tempora SS. Benedicti, Dominici, Francisci... (published in Cologne in 1638), Xenia et sermones problematicae cum paradoxis et baculo (published in Mainz in 1647), Practica prudentiae politicae et militaris in 246 axiomata congesta... (published in Vilnius in 1670) and Vitis mystica. Viti verae, quae Christus est... (published in Cologne in 1677). Although the mentioned books are typical examples of private libraries of Canons Regular of the Lateral, they were used by the Rev. Benedykt Szamotulski for designing the ideological program of the interior of the St Peter and St Paul’s Church in the Antakalnis in Vilnius. A particularly valuable book in the Rev. Szamotulski’s library was "Vox turturis seu de Florenti usque ad nostra tempora SS. Benedicti, Dominici, Francisci…". It was previously in possession of Władysław IV. The evidence of this ownership is superexlibris with the coat of arms of the House of Vasa with the Order of the Golden Fleece. So far, this book has not been mentioned in the literature on the book collections of the House of Vasa.
