This lot features an original oil on canvas Post-Impressionist winter landscape by Jan Cybis (Polish 1897 - 1972). Cybis was born in Fröbel, Poland and studied at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków, settling in that city from 1934.The German Expressionist Otto Mueller was his mentor. He studied under Józef Pankiewicz among others, developing a reputation for a post-impressionist style using rich, saturated color influenced by the French.

His wife Hanna Rudzka-Cybisowa (1897-1988) was a notable painter in her own right and also active as a Kapist. Since 1973 the Association of Polish Artists and Designers has issued a prestigious annual Jan Cybis Award to Polish visual artists for creative achievement.
