Unusual East European Yiddishe Judaica Themed Artwork. An oil on canvas painting At Galicia Fair by J. Maisner, European, 20th century, after the original painting by Antoni Kozakiewicz, Polish, 1841 to 1929. Signed on the lower right. Framed. Note: Antoni Kozakiewicz was a Polish genre painter in the Realist style. He began his studies in 1857 at the Krakow Academy of Fine Arts under Wladyslaw Luszczkiewicz, among others, graduating in 1866. It took him some extra time to complete his courses because, in 1863, he was a participant in the January Uprising, during which he was captured by Russian troops and imprisoned until the insurgency was over. After graduation, he continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna. In 1871 he was able to continue his education at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich. He shared a studio with Franz Streitt and Aleksander Kotsis and often went on painting expeditions with them in the mountains of Bavaria. His work met with great success there, so he decided to stay; remaining for almost thirty years altogether, although he made regular visits to Poland. European Fine Art And Wall Decor Collectibles.
