Biography
Artur Grottger began studying painting with his father, then - from 1849 - studied with Juliusz Kossak and Julian Maszkowski in Lviv. He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Krakow (1852-54 with W. K. Stattler and W. Luszczkiewicz) and at the Academy in Vienna (1855-63 with K. Wurzinger, P. J. N. Geiger, K. Mayer, K. Blaas and C. Ruben). He lived in Vienna until 1865, from where he traveled to Poland, Hungary, Munich and Venice. He returned to the country for a year (he was then in Krakow, Lviv and the surrounding area) and left for Paris. Heavily ill with tuberculosis, he moved to the south of France. He is one of the most important Polish painters of the Romantic era. He created several cycles of drawings: Warsaw I (1861), Warsaw II (1862), Polonia (1863), Lituania (1864-66), War (1866-67), which were published in the form of lithographs in Vienna and brought him great popularity. He painted mainly scenes related to the January Uprising, portraits, genre scenes, historical and allegorical compositions.
