Grudziądz - Raftsman

When walking around Grudziądz, right next to the Granaries, it is hard to miss the mural depicting a raftsman proudly adorning the wall opposite the Vistula Trade Museum "Flis." This unique image is a tribute to the tradition and history associated with the Vistula River, which has shaped the lives of the inhabitants for centuries. The mural, made using the sepia technique and utilizing the white background, catches the eye with its subtlety and elegance. What distinguishes it from others is the way in which the figure of the raftsman appears slightly blurred, creating an aura of mystery and encouraging reflection. The image reminds us of the roots and traditions of trade on the Vistula River, which were of great importance to Grudziądz. It is not only a work of art, but also an invitation to visit the museum. This mural is a symbol of the passage of time and history flowing with the current of the Vistula River.
