Biography
Maksymilian Stratanowski (1913, Oriol - 1987, Warsaw) painted primarily portraits, landscapes and still lifes. He also created set designs for the Warsaw Opera and the Arnold Szyfman Polish Theater. His work is strongly associated with Warsaw. The painting "Biathletes" stands out among his other works by capturing movement, as the artist specialized in rather static portrait painting.
