Bandura Player with a Jew is a 1806 oil by Michał Stachowicz, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting shows two men in a room. One man is sitting and playing a bandura, a stringed instrument. He's wearing a green coat with gold trim and a black hat. The other man is standing behind him, holding a piece of paper. He's wearing a black coat and a white hat. There are some objects around them, like a jug and a violin. The man playing the bandura seems to be enjoying himself. The other man looks like he's reading or singing along. The room is dark, but there's a window on the left side that lets in some light.
