restoration of a lying lion (face)

The ‘Lying Lion’ sculpture is one of two statues situated in an antithetical order in the foreground of the main entrance of the Radziwiłł Palace in Nieborów. It was sculpted probably by Johann Georg Plersch's workshop in the 18th century. The figures of lions were not designed for the Palace in Niebrów. They were purchased after the first world war from the Tyszkiewicz family estate in Landwarów. Later the lion was brought to the Faculty of Conservation and Restoration of Works of Art, Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, Poland for its restoration.
