The purpose of the article is to provide an idea of the role that Cyprus played in the rivalry between the Ottoman Empire at the height of its development in the sixteenth century, and the Christian forces in the Mediterranean basin, in particular, the Republic of Venice. The Battle of Lepanto is one stage in this rivalry, which culminated in major changes in the strategic and economic balance in the eastern Mediterranean. The article refers to the causes of this rivalry, the war for Cyprus and the Battle of Lepanto, and also points to the important theme of the battle itself in Polish art, also in a metaphorical context. The article concludes by pointing out the consequences of the fall of Cyprus and its placement as a province of the Ottoman Empire
