Notes Original in the Drottningholm Palace in Sweden. According to Adam Jarzębski's "Short Description of Warsaw" from 1643, in the so called giardino secreto (secret garden) of the Villa Regia Palace in Warsaw there was a statue of a Horse bitten by a snake ("Sam koń stoi urodziwy, Wąż go spodku kąsa, dziwy!"), it is possible that this statue was taken by Swedes from Warsaw and not from Prague.
