Abstract

The article describes the water colours of Napoleon Orda with the images of Halych created in 1878/1880. It is emphasized that until now only one lithography based on the drawing of Napoleon Orda has been known in historical science, depicting the center of Halych and Mount Zamkova from the left bank of the Dnister river. The publication describes two other little/known drawings of the author with the images of the Market Square and ruins of the castle, and the St. Panteleimon church. Both drawings, made with pencil and glue colours in watercolor technique, were preserved in the funds of the National Museum of Krakow in very good condition, they are published for the first time.
