Popularizing note

Album Lubelskie [Lublin Album] is a work created in the years 1857-1859 on the basis of watercolours made in 1852 by Adam Lerue, an artist, with his drawings and watercolours, who contributed to the inventory of the monuments of Lublin and the region - as he himself wrote in the introduction to this work - close to his heart because of its place birth, which is Dubienka. Julian Cegliński and Władysław Walkiewicz, who made lithographs in the Warsaw lithographic workshop of Adolf Pecq, also worked on its creation. The second part, featuring views from Puławy, dates to 1858–1860.Puławy is a city associated with Princess Izabela Czartoryska. During her presence there was the greatest development of the city, to which she moved with her husband, Prince Adam Kazimierz, from Warsaw in 1784, after the tragic death of her daughter Teresa. The Duchess made Puławy the main Polish centre of cultural and artistic life. On her initiative, schools were established in the surrounding villages, and the prince founded the Teachers' Institute. At the end of the 18th century, the greatest development of the estate in Puławy took place, it was then that the Gothic House, Marynka's Palace, the Temple of the Sybil, the Chapel of St. Assumption of the Mother of God, the Greek House and the Alexandrian House. Classicist-romantic architecture was placed in an English park. It is also a significant place due to the beginnings of Polish museology there.After the fall of the November Uprising, the Czartoryski estate was confiscated. In 1846 Puławy was renamed to Nowa [New] Alexandria.The lithograph shows a landscape shown from the hill by the Vistula. On the other side of the river, beyond the lush vegetation, you can see the panorama of the city. The wide frame, covering the richness of the Puławy nature with arable fields, is varied with huts and staffage typical of Lerue.Klara Sadkowska
