1866 – 1940

Polish painter and graphic artist; one of the first Impressionists and Symbolists in Polish art at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries; initiator of the Colourist movement in Polish painting of the 1920s and 30s. He studied (1884-85) at the Warsaw Drawing School under Wojciech Gerson (1831-1901) and Aleksander Kamiński (1823-1886). In 1885 he went to St Petersburg with his friend Władysław Podkowiński and continued his studies (1885-86) at the Academy of Fine Arts there, deriving most profit from his visits to the great collections of older painting.Show more
