Kościuszko's Oath is a 1806 oil by Michał Stachowicz, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting shows a large group of people gathered in a town square. They're all dressed in old-fashioned clothing, and some are holding flags or weapons. In the center, a man on horseback is raising his right hand in the air. The scene is set against the backdrop of a big building with a tall tower. The sky above is cloudy and gray. The artist used oil paint to create this scene, but the date it was made is unknown. If you want to see more works like this, check out the National Museum in Kraków.
