Konrad Morawski, Toward a Universal Science. Sculpted and Painted Decorations in the Library of King Jan III at the Wilanów Palace, Warszawa 2023, ISBN 978-83-66104-98-3.

This book attempts to decipher the contents of the decorations inside Jan III’s library while partially reconstructing the history of its creation. The analysis of particular works of art and contextual studies enabled the formulation of certain conclusions concerning the original arrangement of the decorations and their ideological significance. One substantial contribution of this study is the identification of graphical sources used by those who furnished the room.
