Swierzno (Ger.: Schwirsen), a small settlement in Western Pomerania on the Polish side of the post-Second World War border, is where a general-lieutenant of Wettin royal cavalry division, Bogusław Bodo Fleming, (1671-1732), had built a manor house in a landscaped park. One of the buildings featured a ballroom with a separate gallery for musicians on the first floor. Its main decorative feature is an illusionary frieze portraying a balcony with balustrade upon which are placed 16 figures dressed in carnival clothing that would have looked down on the general-lieutenant's guests as they danced on the ground floor. Unfortunately, the author of the ballroom's decor remains unknown, although it is possible to place him among the creative circles of Dresden, where the comedia dell'arte became fashionable. Illusionary painting was still highly popular in the 18th century, decorating church and palace interiors as well as theatre stages and set pieces. A playhouse similar to the one in Swierzno has been preserved to current times in the Orangerie theatre of the Lazienki Gardens in Warsaw (1788), although the former's frieze is around sixty years older (approximate dating). The authoress appeals for the undertaking of conservation work on this 'pleasing and colourful' historical monument in order to preserve it for future generations.
