Hello All:
Im so happy that we finally have a Polish dialist member of our Sundial List. Thanks to Derek Oczki of Warsaw, we now know that the valuable historic etched glass sundial from the Royal Palace still exits. I thought it was lost forever. I saw it on Dereks website and contacted him about it. He told me that it now resides at the Wilanów Palace in Warsaw Poland. This is the second oldest etched glass sundial that we know of made in 1788. It is also the first known glass sundial to feature an Analemma. Derek visited the dial and photographed it from every angle and kindly sent the hi def photos to us for posting on the website. Thank you Darek! See www.stainedglasssundials.com Or http://www.advanceassociates.com/Sundials/Stained_Glass/sundials_EGP.html#D1 47 p.s. Look closely at the photos of the palace building. Underneath the plastic tarp on the scaffolding you can see the famous painted wall sundial that has already been discussed on the List. John L. Carmichael Sundial Sculptures 925 E.
