Norblin made two versions of the drawing depicting the Adoption of the Constitution of 3 May 1791. The engraving was made, as indicated in the inscription, after a drawing then in the collections of Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz. The drawing was later purchased by Stanisław Kostka Potocki. It is now in the Department of Iconography at the National Museum in Warsaw, which houses part of the historic collection of the Potockis. The artist executed this subject several times, but the only thing we know is that this particular drawing was made on 3 May 1791, as confirmed by the signature: Norblin fc. 1791 d’aprés N. Dr. Hanna Widacka wrote that the copper plate was “damaged", after only 20 impressions had been pulled, which is probably why the print is rarely found in collections. Under the engraving is an inscription in Polish and French separated by the royal coat of arms surmounted by a crown and a personification of Justice and Fame.
