Provenance:
The painting (also Brasserie) comes from the collection of the heirs of Karol Jakubowski (Lviv 1876 - Lviv 1939), a physician and collector. Jakubowski studied in Lviv at the medical faculty of the local university and practiced as a doctor there. He primarily collected Polish paintings.
Stanislaw Dębicki (Lubaczow 1866 - Cracow 1924) - painter, draughtsman, illustrator - began his painting studies with Ch. Griepenkerl at the Vienna Academy (1881-1884), then studied under W. Luszczkiewicz at the School of Fine Arts in Cracow, then again in Vienna, and in 1884 with A. Wagner at the Academy and privately with P. Nauen in Munich. After returning to Poland, he worked for several years as a teacher at the School of Ceramic Industry in Kolomyja (1886-1890). During this period, he often traveled to nearby Hutsul towns and villages - Delatin, Mikuliczyn, Zabi, Tyszkowce - where he made many sketches and drawing notes. In 1890-1891 he was in Paris and still attended the Académie Colarossi. He later settled permanently in Lviv, from where he moved to Krakow in 1909 to take up the chair of decorative painting at the Academy of Fine Arts. He was a member of the Society of Polish Artists "Sztuka", the Viennese "Secession", the Union of Polish Visual Artists and TPSP in Lviv. He painted in oil, watercolor and pastel, creating landscapes and portraits (including many children's portraits) and above all, genre scenes from the lives of Hutsul and Galician Jews. He was involved in decorative painting, illustration and various applied arts, occasionally also stage design and sculpture.
The artist's work was recalled in the only major monographic exhibition held at the Silesian (now National) Museum in Wroclaw in 1966.
