| | Bakalowicz, Wladyslaw | (Polish, 1833-1903) |
|
| | Wladyslaw Bakalowicz was born in 1833 and attended school at the Warsaw School of Fine Arts from 1849 to 1854. Bakalowicz traveled to France and settled permanently in Paris and married actress Wiktoryna Szymanowska. | | Bakalowicz painted portraits, genre scenes, and pictures of Polish history. While Polish culture was a strong influence in Bakalowicz's artwork, the artist also painted scenes drawn from sixteenth and seventeenth century French history. Bakalowicz had a strong interest in courtly interior scenes. He experimented with oil paints, pastels, and watercolor as well as different sized canvases. In fact, some of his most prized worked are small-scale paintings, rendered in amazing detail. | | Bakalowicz participated in exhibitions at the Warsaw "Zacheta" Society of Fine Arts, the Krakow Society of Fine Arts, and the Warsaw salon. The artist`s paintings are in museum collections in Warsaw, Krakow, and Radom, as well as in many private collections in Poland and throughout the world. Bakalowicz frequently signed his works "LADISLAUS" or "L.". |
