Józef Simmler, a prominent Polish painter of the 19th century, is known for his historical and genre paintings. One of his notable works is "Postacie strażników. Studium do obrazu 'Katarzyna Jagiellonka w więzieniu w Gripsholmie'" (Figures of the Guards. Study for the Painting 'Catherine Jagiellon in Prison at Gripsholm'). This painting serves as a preparatory study for a larger work depicting the imprisonment of Catherine Jagiellon, a significant historical figure, at Gripsholm Castle.

Catherine Jagiellon, a member of the Polish-Lithuanian Jagiellonian dynasty, was married to John III of Sweden. Her imprisonment at Gripsholm Castle occurred during a turbulent period in Swedish history, marked by political intrigue and power struggles. Simmler’s study focuses on the figures of the guards, capturing the somber and tense atmosphere of the scene.

Simmler’s attention to detail and his ability to convey emotion through the depiction of his subjects are evident in this study. The guards are portrayed with a sense of realism and depth, reflecting the artist's skill in character study and his interest in historical accuracy. The painting not only highlights the guards but also sets the tone for the larger narrative of Catherine's confinement, emphasizing the isolation and uncertainty she faced.

This work is an example of Simmler’s broader interest in Polish history and his dedication to portraying significant historical events and figures. His paintings often reflect a deep sense of national identity and pride, resonating with the Polish public of his time. Through his art, Simmler contributed to the preservation and celebration of Polish history and culture.

While the study itself is a smaller piece, it plays a crucial role in the development of the final composition, showcasing Simmler’s meticulous process and his commitment to capturing the essence of historical moments.
