Essay
A circle of young artists, predominatly of Polish origin, began to form around Josef von Brandt in Munich as of 1875, the so-called ‘Brandt-Schule’. Besides Jan Chelminski, Alfred von Wierusz-Kowalski and Franz Roubaud were also part of this group. Illustrations of historical Cossack- and Tatar warriors, horse markets and hunting scenes made the artists successful for a long time. Additionally, the Polish artists had a faible for scenes from Napoleon’s campaigns. Around 1870 Maksymilian Gierymski revived the historical genre of cousing in Rococo costumes, over the following years his artist friends Wierusz-Kowalski and Chelminski also took this subject on. A work by Chelmisnki that resembles the one offered here was acquired by King Ludwig II. at the ‘Münchner Internationalen Kunstausstellung’ in 1879.

Znacznie wyżej notowany malarz od poprzedniego autora a dlaczego to widać. Dużo utargować pewnie sie nie da ale warto próbować by przypadkowo nie wylądować w górnych widełkach.
