"[...] The author of these small oil paintings relies on her craft and her impressions for inspiration. She uses delicate smudges of painted colour and their outlines and interpenetrating layers to give an artistic impression of mountain landscapes. The large rocks, sparkling light and vastness of the sky and clouds create an impressive natural spectacle, full of dramatic contrasts. The mountain panoramas are full of dramatic energy and interest. We not only see recurrring motifs of eternal themes, but are reminded of the intense romantic aura surrounding the grandeur of mountain landscapes." (J. Buszyński, Irena Trzetrzewińska - Paintings, exhibition catalogue, Katowice 1969)
