Izabela Czartoryska, née Flemming, one of the most influential women of the 18th and 19th
century, was known as an art collector, the founder of the first Polish museum, the initiator
of several landscape gardens, and an ardent patriot. Among her many interests was arts
patronage. She was the force behind two landscape architecture concepts, a sentimentalist
one in Powązki and a pre-romanticist one in Puławy. Izabela Czartoryska contributed to the
development of sentimentalism and Pre-Romanticism in Poland, with Puławy – devoted
to patriotism and celebration of Polish history – having been particularly important for
the Polish society given the demise of Polish independence.
