Rejtan - un dipinto di Jan Matejko del 1866, che mostra la protesta di Tadeusz Rejtan contro la prima spartizione della Polonia al Sejm della spartizione. Il soggetto del dipinto è una scena avvenuta il 21 aprile 1773, il terzo, decisivo giorno della Partizione Sejm nel castello di Varsavia, in base alla quale Prussia, Russia e Austria si spartirono parti delle terre polacche. La figura sul pavimento, che sbarra l'uscita dell'aula, è Tadeusz Rejtan, un deputato di Nowogródek, che in un gesto di disperazione sta cercando di impedire il vergognoso evento della spartizione della sua patria. Poi avrebbe detto: "Sul mio cadavere, immagino!" Il dipinto fu esposto ad una mostra a Parigi nel 1867, dove vinse una medaglia d'oro. Fu acquistata dall'imperatore d'Austria Francesco Giuseppe I per la sua collezione e nel 1918 la tela fu acquistata dal governo della Repubblica indipendente di Polonia e donata alle collezioni del Castello Reale di Varsavia. Durante la mostra di Parigi, i francesi, guardando attraverso il prisma dell'opinione popolare sull'abuso di alcol da parte dei polacchi, sospettavano che fosse ubriaco.---------------------Rejtan - a painting by Jan Matejko from 1866, showing Tadeusz Rejtan's protest against the First Partition of Poland at the Partition Sejm. The subject of the painting is a scene that took place on April 21, 1773, the third, decisive day of the Partition Sejm at the castle in Warsaw, under which Prussia, Russia and Austria divided parts of Polish lands. The figure on the floor, barricading the exit from the chamber, is Tadeusz Rejtan, an MP from Nowogródek, who, in a gesture of despair, is trying to prevent the shameful event of the partition of his homeland. He then allegedly said, "Over my dead body, I guess!" The painting was shown at an exhibition in Paris in 1867, where it was awarded a gold medal. The Emperor of Austria, Franz Joseph I, purchased it for his collection. In 1918, the canvas was purchased by the government of the independent Republic of Poland and donated it to the collections of the Royal Castle in Warsaw. During the Paris exhibition, the French, looking through the prism of popular opinion about alcohol abuse by Poles, suspected him of being drunk.

A well-documented caption 1773 and history as a spinning wheel repeats itself but we learn nothing.
