However, part of his artistic output has not been identified. A letter written by de Witte, discovered at the Wawel State Archives in Krakow, has provided information on the architect's presence in Chortkov (Czortkow), Kshivchi (Krzywczy) and Kupin in Podolia in the year 1763. In the first of these two towns it would seem likely that de Witte was responsible for extensions made to the castles belonging to the Potocki family, while in Kupin he ran the "factory" in the monastery and church of the Barefooted Carmelites. The castles were to unfortunately fall into a state of dilapidation, while the monasterial complex at Kupin was destroyed by the Soviet authorities. abstract_translated_lang: eng date: 1995 date_type: published id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/artdok.00001475 collection: c-4 ppn_swb: 1650717431 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-artdok-14756 language: pol bibsort: KRASNYPIOTPRZYCZYNEK1995 full_text_status: public publication: Biuletyn Historii Sztuki volume: 57 number: 3-4 pagerange: 295-297 oa_type: green title_lat: Przyczynek do biografii Jana de Witte themen: T11 laender: LOs citation: Krasny, Piotr (1995) Przyczynek do biografii Jana de Witte.
