Stanisław Herakliusz Lubomirski (1642–1702), Marshal of the Crown 1676–1702,Court Marshal of the Crown 1673–76; poet, philosopher; from 1676 owner of the Ujazdów estate, where he had a bathing pavilion built, known as the Bathhouse, designed by Tilman van Gameren, which was later extended by King Stanisław August into the Łazienki Palace. The portrait most probably belonged to the Lubomirskis ancestral gallery in Ujazdów Castle. …
In 19th-century archival sources and the literature the painting was described as the work of an unknown artist. …
The sitter holds a marshal’s baton which was probably made for him in 1683, and which has been preserved to this day in the collections of the Princes Czartoryski in Kraków … . The ferrule in the upper part bears a white eagle beneath a crown. The portrait may be an 18th-century copy of the original made during Lubomirski’s lifetime. [See D. Juszczak, H.
