This exhibition was made possible in particular thanks to cooperation with the Lithuanian National Museum in Vilnius, which provided valuable monuments of ancient Tatar writing. Another extraordinary monument for conservation reasons, shown at the exhibition only for a certain period of time, will be a unique Tatar copy of the Nesvizh Arian Bible from 1572, preserved in the collection of the University of Warsaw Library (which is being prepared for submission to the UNESCO Memory of the World (MoW) Register).
The exhibition was created as part of the 17th International Congress of Turkish Art (ICTA) in Warsaw, organised by the Museum of King Jan III’s Palace at Wilanów and the University of Warsaw. The congress took place on 18–21 September, 2023.
