The manor house of Helena and Józef Badeni at Wadów has so far not received monographic treatment. Historical studies and conservation treatment reports as well as popular works datę the construction of the house to the year 1874 and ascribe its design to the architect Antoni Łuszczkiewicz. Better documented is the twentiethcentury history of the Wadów estate and its house, but also these data are not free from inaccuracies. In 1873 the village was sold to Józef Badeni who died shortly afterwards (in 1878). The coats of arms of Badeni and his wife, Helena nee Wężyk, depicted on the manors entrance porch suggest that the building was erected between 1873 and 1878. The analysis of the architectural forms of the edifice has unequivocally indicated that its architect must have been trained on the models of Karl Friedrich Schinkel and was under influence of the current which was originated by Schinkel in the architecture of Berlin in the second half of the nineteenth century. Graphic models can be identified for particular architectural details used by the architect in the building. The manor house at Wadów exhibits also close similarities with the house of the Wężyk family at Minoga, designed by Filip Pokutyński in 1859. A detailed comparative analysis of both houses has concluded that the design of the Badeni manor is of lesser ąuality and hence its authorship cannot be ascribed to Pokutyński. A comparison of characteristic elements appearing in the Wadów manor with their counterparts in independent realisations by Antoni Łuszczkiewicz has confirmed the attribution of the Wadów house to this architect. It also revealed that the patrons themselves must have significantly contributed to the shaping of their new home; they apparently instructed the architect to model the Wadów house after the manor of the Wężyk family
The present paper is intended as a summary of known facts about Antoni Rarogiewicz, a woodcaryer from Przeworsk. Supplemented with recently discoyered information, the paper presents an outline of his career which may serve as a point of departure for a morę detailed inyestigation into the woodcaryer s life and work.
