The Leopolita Bible is the first full printed Catholic translation of the Bible into Polish. It was published by a famous 16th c. Krakow publisher Mark Szarffenberg in 1561. The translation was done by Jan Nicz from Lvov (under the pen-name Leopolita which means ‘the one from Lvov’). This edition is one of the most richly illustrated Polish Bibles of the 16th c.
