This painter, art theorist, philosopher and dramatist, who often used the assumed name Witkacy, played an important role in the creation of modern Polish art. By the age of 17 he was writing philosophical essays and exhibiting his landscapes. He spent his youth in Zakopane, but during his frequent trips abroad he strove to absorb the spirit of modern European art. A summation of influences coming from Art Nouveau, Symbolism and Expressionism can be seen on this early landscape. It was produced at the same time as his first “psychological portraits” and “monsters,” with which he exerted such a great influence on his contemporaries.
