Miniature painted by Stanisław Samostrzelnik of Mogiła (Stanislaus Claratumbensis), from a manuscript copy of Catalogus archiepiscoporum Gnesnensium ("Catalogue of the Archbishops of Gniezno") and Vitae episcoporum Cracoviensium ("Lives of the Bishops of Kraków") by Jan Długosz, created in the 1530s for Bishop Piotr Tomicki of Kraków. It depicts Saint Stanislaus of Szczepanów as the patron saint of Poland, venerated by King Sigismund I and Tomicki himself together with church and secular dignitaries.

Saint Stanislaus is depicted in hierarchical proportion, dressed in pontifical vestments and a mitre on his haloed head. The inscription on a red plaque above reads: S[an]ctus Stanislaus Ep[iscopu]s Crac[oviensis] R[egni] P[oloniae] Patro[nus] (“Saint Stanislaus, Bishop of Kraków, Patron of the Kingdom of Poland”). He holds a crosier in his left hand and makes a blessing gesture with his right. The angels on either side of him support his cape above the figures praying below and hold the saint’s attributes: a palm branch symbolizing martyrdom and a red banner with the White Eagle intertwined with the letter “S” (King Sigismund I’s cypher) symbolizing his patronage of the Kingdom of Poland. The small figure of a naked bearded man at the saint’s feet is that of Piotr, whom – according to legend – Stanislaus resurrected, and serves as an attribute of the saint as a miracle maker.

The two larger figures kneeling at the saint’s feet are King Sigismund I of Poland (right, wearing a crown and a gold chain) and Piotr Tomicki, bishop of Kraków and deputy chancellor of the Crown (left, in pontifical vestments). Below, surrounded by wreaths and with a little white dog lying on the grass in between, are two heraldic shields:

• on the right, the royal coat of arms, the White Eagle; above the escutcheon there is a crown and the letters S[igismundus] R[ex] (“King Sigismund”);
• on the left, the arms of Tomicki’s Łodzia clan; above the escutcheon there is a mitre and the letters P[etrus] T[omicius] E[piscopus] C[racoviensis] (“Piotr Tomicki, Bishop of Kraków”).

Kneeling behind the king:

• Krzysztof Szydłowiecki, grand chancellor of the Crown, wearing a bonnet and a gold chain; below there is the coat of arms of his Odrowąż clan, in an escutcheon surrounded by a green winged dragon, an augmentation granted by Emperor Maximilian I of the Holy Roman Empire together with a baronial title;
• Treasurer Mikołaj Szydłowiecki (presumably), wearing a bonnet;
• Royal Secretary Just Decjusz (presumably), bearded and wearing a hat.

Kneeling behind Bishop Tomicki:

• Canon Jerzy Myszkowski; below there is the coat of arms of his Jastrzębiec clan and the letters G[eorgius] M[yszkowski] A[rchidiaconus] C[racoviensis] (“Jerzy Myszkowski, Archdeacon of Kraków”);
• two unidentified clergymen.

The miniature is surrounded by a border with floral ornamentation. The inscription on a red plaque in the left part of the border reads: Vir inclite Stanislae vita signis pasione gregem tuam pastor bone fove benedictione guberna protectione sana salva s[an]ct[i] intercessione (“O Stanislaus, famous for your life, miraculous signs and passion! O good shepherd, support your flock with your blessing, govern our protection, heal and save us through your holy intercession!”).
