Abstract

The repository of Theater Documentation of the Institute of Art, Polish Academy of Sciences, holds a substantial (more than 20,000 items) collection of old theatrical posters dating from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It also contains a small, and for that reason all the more precious, number of theater posters from the Eastern Borderland of Poland, preserved and donated by private collectors. For the purposes of this publication, a set of posters dating from the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries that come from Grodno, Kamieniec Podolski, Kaunas, Lvov, Minsk, Vilnius, and Żytomierz has been chosen. They come from the post-partition Polish territories ruled by Russia as well as by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and in the case of Lvov, from the territory of independent Poland.
