UNESCO World Art Series – Poland (Plate 16)
St. George and the Dragon (after a 15th-century Polish triptych wing)
Offered is a vintage UNESCO World Art Series color offset reproduction published by New York Graphic Society (Greenwich, CT), Plate 16, circa 1960s. The artwork reproduces the outer wing of the Holy Trinity Triptych (also known as the Trinity Altar) located in Wawel Cathedral, Kraków, Poland.
Unlike many examples that appear as loose plates, this piece is mounted to a wood/Masonite panel with a textured finish, giving it a substantial, presentation-ready look. It is housed in a period wood frame with a velvet liner for a classic, gallery-style appearance.

This piece came from a library art collection auction after its production era. I am the third owner. These UNESCO plates are collectible, and panel-mounted examples like this are far less commonly encountered than standard paper plates—particularly in this condition.
Ships carefully packed with protective materials to prevent frame or corner damage in transit.
