  • Matejko, Jan Jan Alojzy Matejko (1848–1893) Was a Polish Painter, Draughtsman, Portraitist, and Representa- Tive of Historicism and Academism in European Painting
    47 Mastema 48 Matejko, Jan Jan Alojzy Matejko (1848–1893) was a Polish painter, draughtsman, portraitist, and representa- tive of historicism and academism in European painting. He created numerous religious and sacred paintings, and was the originator of the national Polish school of historical painting. Matejko initially wanted to become a religious painter and considered sacred painting his calling. However, after the defeat of the Polish January Up- rising (1863/4), he turned more towards historical painting – a move significantly influenced by Józef Szujski, co-founder of the so-called Kraków School of History. Matejko made numerous artistic journeys, visit- ing the following art centers in Europe: Paris (in 1867, 1870, 1878, 1880), Vienna (in 1866, 1867, 1870, 1872, 1873, 1882, 1888), Istanbul/I˙stanbul (1872), Prague and Budapest (1873), and Venice, Rome, and Florence (1878/1879 and 1883). He suc- cessfully exhibited his paintings many times at pub- lic exhibitions outside Poland, in major cities of Eu- rope, including Paris, Vienna, Berlin, London, Prague, Budapest, and St. Petersburg. Matejko’s “religious” paintings can be divided into three groups. Firstly, he composed several dozen historical paintings (including large format Encyclopedia of the Bible and Its Reception vol. 18 Marek Mariusz Tytko - 10.1515/ebr.matejkojan © WalterDownloaded de Gruyter, from Berlin/Boston, De Gruyter Online 2020 at 10/05/2020 10:54:34AM by [email protected] via Gary Helft 49 Matejko, Jan 50 paintings) with interwoven historical and philo-

Printed in a relatively small edition of seven thousand copies by the firm of W.L. Anczyc & Co., one of the oldest and most respected Polish language publishers, and distributed to all three partitions by the bookstores of H. Altenberg in Lvov (the album's publisher) and E. Wende & Co. in Warsaw, the album was a ground-breaking achievement. It was edited by Feliks Jasieński and Adam Łada Cybulski, two art critics with well-established reputations as supporters and promoters of modern art.

  • Polish Painting Between Historicism and Modernism
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Wasilewska, Joanna (Hrsg.): Poland - China : art and cultural heritage, Kraków 2011, S. 73-77 Maria Poprzgcka University of Warsaw Polish Painting between Historicism and Modernism In order to understand the specificity of the Polish art of the nineteenth century, it is worth recalling a few historical facts. Key among these is that throughout the nine­ teenth century Poland did not exist as an independent state. In the course of successive Partitions in the late eighteenth century, the Polish lands had been divided among Russia, Prussia and Austria. The three partitioning powers then proceeded, with vary­ ing degrees of severity, to denationalize their newly-gained territories. It was this lack of statehood in the nineteenth century that gave Polish art the exalted status of an upholder of national consciousness with the mission to consolidate the nation divided between three hostile states. In the words of a poet, artists were to exercise a “reign of souls” over the enslaved nation. The great prestige enjoyed by the towering Romantic Poets of the first half of the nineteenth century led to art being treated as a national religion and a path toward moral and national revival. The great hopes that accompanied the emergence of national painting stemmed from the belief thatthe medium was uniquely qualified to rouse and promote patriotic sentiment. National art obviously needed to be based on subjects taken from history. Historical painting was conceived as a sort of visual Bible of national consciousness. Hie growing hopes for a “Polish epic in painting were the most serious challenge with wruch the generation of artists coming of age around the mid-1800s had to contend, Sensational historicalromances devoid of any moral dimension popular in Western European painting of the time were inappropriate for such a purpose.

  • POLISH ART NOUVEAU, 1890-1910 Hannah Justine Marchman a Thesis
    NATIONALISM IN AN INTERNATIONAL MOVEMENT: POLISH ART NOUVEAU, 1890-1910 Hannah Justine Marchman A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Curriculum in Russian and East European Studies in the College of Arts & Sciences. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Ewa Wampuszyc Pamela Kachurin Chad Bryant © 2012 Hannah Justine Marchman ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract HANNAH MARCHMAN: Nationalism in an International Movement: Polish Art Nouveau, 1890-1910 (Under the direction of Ewa Wampuszyc) While the Art Nouveau movement in Europe has been extensively studied, Polish art has been largely left out of the discussion. However, this absence should not be considered as proof that Polish artists did not create art works in the Art Nouveau style. In fact, Art Nouveau was prevalent in Poland, but unlike the movement in Europe, Polish Art Nouveau tended to have political undertones. This thesis examines how Polish artists adapted the wider Art Nouveau movement to Polish culture, and assisted the political agenda that Polish art had been charged with in the aftermath of the eighteenth century partitions. Furthermore, this thesis describes the wider Polish Art Nouveau movement and looks at the underlying meanings of paintings, stained glass window designs, posters, and postcards from 1890 to 1910. iii This thesis is dedicated to my wonderful husband Patrick. His support, encouragement, and unconditional love kept me going. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Foremost, I would like to thank my advisor Dr. Ewa Wampuszyc for her patience, encouragement, and immense knowledge.

  • Adolf Juzwenko Ossolineum. 200 Years with the People in Search of Their Way to Independence in the 1790S, Count Józef Maksymili
    Adolf Juzwenko Ossolineum. 200 years with the people in search of their way to independence In the 1790s, count Józef Maksymilian Ossoli ński was in Vienna, seeking support for patriotic initiatives intended at preventing the collapse of the Polish state. Because it turned out to be impossible to prevent, Ossoli ński decided he should engage himself in the protection of national identity, historical memory and the will of the people to remain themselves. The family establishment of the Ossolineum Library, presented by the count to the emperor of Austria on 18 October 1816, was approved on 4 June 1817. It was indeed a success – after nearly twenty years of attempts, taken during various conflicts tearing Europe, Ossoli ński managed to give his compatriots an institution which proved to be increasingly successful in supporting Polish resistance against forced Russification and Germanisation. At the turn of the 20 th century, the arrangement of political powers in Europe had changed radically. When the Institute celebrated its 100 th anniversary in 1917, Europe had been at war for three years. The conflict continued between powers divided into two camps – Triple Entente and Triple Alliance. On the Eastern front, Germany and Austria-Hungary struggled against Russia, on the Western one – France and Great Britain fought against Germany. All parties were exhausted by the conflict, the armies – demoralised by Bolshevik propaganda. Eventually, United States' involvement determined the fate of the war. The chances for deep political changes in Europe grew. Nations of Europe, previously deprived of sovereignty, had begun to reach for independence. When the war ended, on 11 November 1918, Poles had begun to build their own state.

    Originalveröffentlichung in: Ławniczkowa,, Agnieszka (Hrsg.): The naked soul : Polish fin-de-siècle paintings from the National Museum, Poznań [Ausstellungskatalog], Raleigh, NC 1993, S. 1-13 Art in the Service of an Oppressed Nation Introduction to the History of Polish Painting in the Nineteenth Century JAN K. OSTROWSKI N 1795, after eight hundred years of independent life, Poland watched help­ I lessly as Russia, Prussia, and Austria partitioned its territory into three occu­ pied zones, marking the end of its existence as an independent state. During the dark century of occupation that followed, Poland possessed neither the institutions nor the leadership to maintain a normal national life. For spiritual leadership, restoration of lost pride, and plans for the future, Poland turned to the only group in firm possession of a discernible national Polish identity — its poets and artists. Although influenced by the major European cultural and artistic movements of the time, Polish nineteenth­century art is distinguished by its preoccupation with the sociopolitical and ideological conditions of Poland's status as an oppressed nation. This national element underlies the entire artistic expression of nineteenth­ century Poland. The Face of Nineteenth-Century Europe The period from 1815 to 1914 is unique in European history. The new European order created at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 resulted in a hundred years of unprecedented peace and stability that lasted until the onset of World War I. This seeming stability, however, was marked by successive changes over the course of the century that gradually led to a very different configuration of the map of Europe from the one established by the Congress of Vienna.
