Jagiellonskie

Jagiellonskie playing cards based on the historical paintings of Jan Matejko, designed by Maria Orowska-Gabry with historical advice from Prof. Stanislaw Nahlik. The cards depict royalty from Poland's historic Jagiellonian dynasty, founders of Poland's oldest university in Krakow. The back of the cards features the Polish Eagle and the Lithuanian Knight, symbol of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Printed by KZWP-Trefl, Cracow.

These designers also created the "Relief of Vienna" pack.
