Biography
Draughtsman and lithographer, studied painting at the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts. He then left for Paris where he was a pupil of Ary Scheffer and lithographer Emil Lassalle, at which time he made lithographic copies of paintings of the French school. Beginning in 1851, he began publishing "Polish Images" and color plates for "Patterns of Medieval Art." By 1863, 46 "Images" were published in 14 notebooks. By 1890 he was running a very large, prosperous lithographic establishment on Krakowskie Przedmieście in Warsaw. He received numerous awards at home and abroad for his graphic work, including a gold medal at an exhibition in St. Petersburg and a silver medal at the Paris exhibition in 1867. He exhibited at the Cracow TPSP in 1855 and 1857 and the Warsaw TZSP in 1880. As a lithographer, he played a huge role in the cultural life of Warsaw in the second half of the 19th century.
