1 Dollar - Elizabeth II Władysław Podkowiński

Podkowiński died in 1895 at thirty years old, having publicly destroyed his own monumental canvas Frenzy of Exultations before an exhibition crowd in Warsaw — slashing it repeatedly before onlookers could intervene. The painting survived, restored, and now hangs in the National Museum in Kraków. Niue's 2016 issue is part of a broader Polish Masters series produced under the Pacific island's issuing authority, a licensing arrangement that has made Niue one of the more prolific commemorative silver programs of the last two decades despite having a domestic population under 2,000.
