The Gallery of Medieval Art in Warsaw’s National Museum is filled with religious art that was created hundreds of years ago. Incredibly, the centuries-old artifacts have survived two world wars and the brutal communist regime.
The collection is seen as one of the richest and most diverse in the world. These works were mostly intended for the illiterate Middle Ages populous as a way to convey the words of the Bible, and they do so brilliantly.
