In this post, we present a list of objects related to Polish cultural heritage in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the Renwick Gallery. The listing is based on publicly available information in museum catalogues and the author's independent findings. It is preliminary in nature and further updating and revision is planned.

Our aim is not only to document the presence of these works in the museum's collection, but also - in the future - to expand the database with information on their provenance (origin), exhibition history and detailed artistic analyses.

Due to current copyright regulations, we cannot publish reproductions of most works. However, where possible, we provide links to the official museum catalogue, which includes images or additional information.

Unless otherwise stated, the objects were not on display at the time of publication and were outside the exhibition galleries. It is worth remembering that even works marked 'on display' may have been removed and may be temporarily unavailable.

Every effort is made to ensure that the information presented is reliable and up-to-date. However, the museum's collections are subject to change - if you notice inaccuracies or changes in the status of objects, please contact us.
