In this episode of The Debrief, host John Beauchamp speaks to National Gallery curator Christopher Riopelle on the long-awaited exhibition of Matejko’s Copernicus in London.

Initially planned for last year but postponed because of the pandemic, the exhibition is the National Gallery’s first presentation of a painting by a Polish artist, so you can imagine it’s a big deal.

In this week’s review:

  • Over 7 million Poles fully vaccinated
  • Poland starts issuing Covid certificates
  • LOT plane held at St Petersburg airport for arrest of Russian dissident
