Rajmund Kanelba /Kanelbaum (Warsaw 1897 - London 1960)- began his painting studies in 1918 at the Warsaw School of Fine Arts under Stanislaw Lentz and Tadeusz Pruszkowski.
He then studied in Vienna and Paris, where he settled permanently from 1926, joining the circle of artists of the so-called École de Paris. Starting in 1924, he exhibited a lot at home and abroad, taking part in the Paris Salons and presenting his works in London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Berlin, Bordeaux, Brussels, New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Florida, among others. During World War II he stayed mainly in England, later living periodically in Paris, London and New York. He painted landscapes, still lifes, nudes and portraits, including, especially characteristic for him, "lyrical in mood, freely and sketchily treated studies of women and children" (SAP). In the 1950s he portrayed, among others, Britain's Queen Elizabeth II.
