The Golden Age of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

"The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth at the Zenith of Its Power. The Polish Golden Age. Golden Liberty. The Election of 1573." This is a 19th-century painting by Jan Matejko. It appears in several articles, including "Free election," "History of Poland (1569–1795)," and "Szlachta." It's one of my favorite Matejkos — beautiful colors. I only wish we had better resolution, but I think this will do for our purposes.
