Roman Kostrzewski (1960 – 2022)
Roman Kostrzewski in Poznan, Poland (July 2021)
Last summer I had no idea that Roman Kostrzewski was dying when I saw him perform twice in Poland. Maybe I was the only one in the crowd in that position, given that I was also the only one who couldn’t speak Polish. Anyway, his death yesterday caught me by surprise. I’ve been listening to the setlist from last summer’s shows ever since.
The Last Salty Supper
“The Last Supper” was created by Antoni Wdrodek in 1927-28 in St Kinga’s Chapel in the Wieliczka Salt Mine near Kraków, Poland
Royal Castle in Warsaw (Zamek Królewski w Warszawie)
Royal Castle in Warsaw, Poland (August 2021)
I took this photo simply because the building looked nice. I didn’t realize until I processed the photo that this is the Royal Castle. The Nazis destroyed the building in WWII. This version was reconstructed in the 1970s and early 80s in its original 17th Century style.
