- Support Google's translation of "Autoportret w białym stroju" is "Self-portrait in a white outfit". Is it a white shirt or a white dress? I can't tell for sure because we don't see what's below the belt, but it does look frilly like a dress. Anyway, it's a striking self-portrait and a good reproduction. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:33, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- But "dress" can also be "clothing of a specified kind for men or women", no? So here's a dress of a painter/butcher. Museum also proposes "attire". Its a mess, as always. --Andrei (talk) 07:39, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- "Dress" can mean anything worn, but "a dress" to me is a specific kind of 1-piece garment traditionally worn by women. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:20, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Cambridge dictionary translates stroj as dress. --Andrei (talk) 10:30, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- How about we render it in English as Self-Portrait Dressed in White? That works best for me. (And I hope that's supposed to be paint on his belly and he didn't take a wound there before painting. Or did he stash a fresh cut of meat there?) Daniel Case (talk) 02:44, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
- Your suggestion sounds good but I can not find any sources which would refer to it by this title --Andrei (talk) 06:53, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

- Support Great painter. I have admired some of his works in the Jacek Malczewski Museum in his birthplace Radom. -- Radomianin (talk) 09:50, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Info Radom houses a surprisingly diverse, largely unknown collection (for such a small provincial town) --Andrei (talk) 10:16, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- That's true, maybe it's because Malczewski is a child of Radom. By the way, Radom is considered a big city with over 200,000 inhabitants ;) but I agree that it partly has a provincial charm. -- Radomianin (talk) 11:00, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- I know that it has big population and even considered to be a capital of Masovia, but Warsaw often grabs main attention :) --Andrei (talk) 11:02, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- That's right. Warsaw as a world city deservedly always attracts attention. That's why I wanted to stand up a bit for Radom here :) -- Radomianin (talk) 11:20, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- And thats why I am almost never nominating Warsaw! --Andrei (talk) 11:57, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
