Description
The composition of the painting is based on stylised floral motifs. On the western wall, against a dark blue background covered with gold stars, there is a figure of the Virgin Mary standing, holding a lying infant in her arms, next to two angels holding a gold crown into which colourful flowers are set. An inscription on the east wall just below the vault reads: This chapel in the year of our Lord 1928 in June was designed by Prof. Jan Bukowski, painted by the master painter Karol Orlecki.
