PODKOWINSKI
Wtadystaw PODKOWINSKI m
Bom in Warsaw in 1866 — Died in Warsaw in 1895
He was a student of Wojdech Gerson’s and Aleksander Kaminski’s in the Warsaw Class
of Drawing in the years 1880-1884. In 1885 he left for St Petersburg for one year in order
to continue his studies of painting at the local Academy. In 1889 he stayed in Paris for almost
a year in the company of Jozef Pankiewicz. After their return both artists put on display
the paintings executed in Paris at the Varsovian gallery of Krywult — their exhibition became
a historic event in the development of Polish impressionism. Podkowiriski settled in Warsaw and
in 1884 started to co-operate as an illustrator with the periodicals “Tygodnik Ilustrowany”,
“W^drowiec” and “Klos”. He used to spend summer vacations in the family estates of his friends:
Mokra Wies, Chrzesne near Radzymin, Bidziny and Sobotka in the district of Sandomierz.
He painted landscapes, portraits, genre scenes and symbolic compositions. His untimely death
put an end to an interestingly developing creative activity — as a mature painter Podkowinski
managed to work only for five years.
