Jan z Wielomowic Gawiński (c. 1622–c. 1684) was a Polish Baroque poet. Gawiński is counted into the classical generation of Sarmatians – the generation of John III Sobieski, though his nobility is not certain. He likely descended from the town of Wilamowice near Krakow. He studied at the Biała Podlaska branch of Jagiellonian University. Next he was a courtier of bishop Charles Ferdinand Vasa. He may have fought with the Cossacks. Finally he settled down in Krakow and married Małgorzata Lajtner. There he held several offices, including the steward of saltworks in Wieliczka and Bochnia. He was also the best friend of Wespazjan Kochowski; they found second wives for each other.
