Camiseta Traditional Polish folk art

The illustration above is an example of a traditional Polish folk art called wycinenki , which means "paper cutouts." This art became popular in the mid-19th century and is used to decorate homes. The common motifs, such as flowers, peacocks, and roosters, draw inspiration from nature, folklore, and faith. Traditionally, the cutouts were created without stencils, often using large scissors used to shear sheep's wool. Today, wycinenki is considered one of the most beautiful symbols of Poland and is a contemporary decorative element in many homes.
