This year, as Vilnius University Library celebrates its 455th anniversary, a documentary heritage exhibition titled “On Two Baroque Stars, or Sarbievius and Artistic Poetry” was opened at Vilnius University Library in March. The first part of the exhibition is dedicated to the life and literary heritage of the poet, while the second part is dedicated to the artistic Baroque poetry. On May 20 the Library presented a new digital story of several exhibits in the exhibition – “Two Friends, a Poem and Vilnius”. The story connecting the documents from the first part of the exhibition is like a small piece of a puzzle of a bigger picture – a thread in the life narrative fabric of the Baroque poet Sarbievius.
The link to the digital story can be found here.
“On Two Baroque Stars, or Sarbievius and the Artistic Literature”, a documentary heritage exhibition, is being displayed in Franciszek Smuglewicz Hall of Vilnius University Library from 19 March 2025 to 28 September 2025.
