Feast of Trumpets is an 1884 painting by Aleksander Gierymski, held by the National Museum in Warsaw, which depicts Ashkenazi Jewish men on the bank of the Vistula in the same city, performing tashlikh. It is an atonement ritual performed on Rosh Hashanah, or Jewish New Year, in which one's sins are symbolically cast into naturally-flowing water. Prior to the Holocaust, Poland was home to about three million Jews and a long-time important center of Jewish religious and cultural life.

God the Father – Become! is the title of a stained glass window, designed by Stanisław Wyspiański, in St. Francis's Church in Kraków. The medieval Franciscan church was consumed by the great fire of 1850 and then rebuilt in Neo-Gothic style. Decoration of the interior was commissioned to Wyspiański, an Art Nouveau playwright, painter and designer, and a leading artist of the Young Poland movement, who defined the church's character with his floral frescoes and impressive stained glass windows.

A panorama of the High Tatra Mountains on the Polish–Slovak border, as seen from Żabi Szczyt Niżni (Slovak: Nižný Žabi štít, literally "Lower Frog Peak"). The High Tatras, with eleven peaks over 2,500 m above sea level, are the only alpine range in Poland. They are home to many rare and endemic animal and plant species, as well as large predators, such as the brown bear, wolf, lynx, marten and fox. The area is protected within two national parks: Tatrzański Park Narodowy in Poland and Tatranský národný park in Slovakia.
