The painterly tradition, which presumably originated from the “beautiful style” around 1400, can be seen as an important, but not an exclusive component of panel paintings in Lesser Poland. This paper focuses on innovative aspects, hitherto insufficiently explored in the literature. Prominent graphic sources, especially engravings of Master ES informed new stylistic approaches. The most notable iconographic novelty was the appearance of the imagery of St. Bernardine of Siena, a saint, who became very popular in Poland soon after his canonisation in 1450. The paper seeks to show these components within their wider artistic and cultural context.

A juxtaposition of the group of sculptures in question with particular examples of French sculpture, as well as an analysis of the historical relations between the French and Hungarian milieus of patrons, resulted in a hypothesis about the French origin of the maker of the Central-European figures. Thus, a group of sculptures which plays an important role in the history of art of the Kingdoms of Poland and Hungary has been for the first time associated with a particular Parisian workshop active in the first third of the fourteenth century.

of a rigid border between the Kingdom of Poland and Hungary.
In the 20th century scholars from Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary described
these paintings as sharing important formal characteristics. On the basis of different research hypotheses, these works were attributed to various circles and artistic schools. At different times Cracow, Spiš and the Nowy Sącz Region in Lesser Poland were perceived as playing the key role in the milieu.
Artists were studied as important examples of painters receiving commissions
from patrons on both sides of the border. Unsurprisingly, scholars considered
works created in their native countries as being the most representative and
emphasised the superior quality of local creations in comparison with works
created for the market beyond the border.
In the paper, I will summarise the state of research, and try to outline new
perspectives for the art historical analysis of several issues concerning the
Gothic panel painting on the former Polish-Hungarian borderland.

the medieval Slovak art which are connected with the work
of Master Paul of Levoča. This fact suggests that there must
have been a large workshop in which many of these works were
made. From written records we know that Master Paul was
not devoted to sculpture only, he was also doing some economic
activity. The study aspires to show this medieval sculptor in
the double light: as an artist/sculptor and also a businessman
running one of the biggest workshops in Spiš.
