Baptismal font

Abstract

The 18th-century baptismal font of the church in Górka Kościelnicka was purchased by father Kajetan Kulpiński, who was the parish priest in the years 1775-1796. Decoration of its bowl, known as "chasing," was characteristic of the 16th- and 17th-century art and it has primarily appeared in goldsmithery and as a decoration of baptismal fonts until modern times.
