Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses literary forms of extension and transformation of the space of art works in the selected texts by Jakub Kornhauser. In the first mode, the spatial system of the painting is integrated with the real space, which is immediate to the subject, allowing the conceptualization of the subject’s experience. In the second mode the subject presents either a continuation or the story that precedes the plot featured in the work of art. The story narrated is subjected to the realities of the visual paradigm. It completes what remains unseen in the painting. The author asserts that it is this way of representing space that may determine the apocryphal component in the ekphrastic text.
