Biography
Studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg and Berlin and at the Academy in Munich. He traveled extensively throughout Europe. In 1911-15 he stayed in Istanbul - from there he traveled to Jerusalem, Persia, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Mongolia, was in the Caucasus and Tibet. In 1918 he settled permanently in Sopot. He led a very active artistic life and had many exhibitions at home and abroad. He founded and organized the Maritime Painting Gallery (Maritime Gallery) in Gdynia in 1934. The artist's collection of his paintings - more than 500 works - was destroyed in 1939. He published an art and literary magazine "Fale" at his own expense. In 1959, he was the only Pole to participate in the exhibition of marine painting at the Royal Society and the Society of British Marina Painters. He devoted all his great talent to marine painting - in his youth he took a vow of artistic service to the Polish sea.
