- Stanisław Kaczor-Batowski
Stanisław Kaczor-Batowski (1866-1946) was a Polish realist and romanticist painter. Born in Lwów, then in Austro-Hungarian Galicia), he graduated from the Kraków-based Academy of Fine Arts. A student of Cynk and Łuszczkiewicz, he moved to Vienna and then Munich, where he studied under the tutelage of Alexander Liezen-Mayer between 1887 and 1889. He also spent a brief time in Paris and Rome before returning to his natal Lwów, where he spent the rest of his life.
A fan of Henryk Sienkiewicz, Juliusz Słowacki and Jan Matejko, Kaczor-Batowski specialized in historicist paintings, usually related to Poland's martial history. Among the best known of his works is the "Polish Thermopylae" (Battle of Zadwórze) and "Pułaski at Savannah". The latter painting is currently a property of the president of the United States and is shown in the White House. He is also notable as the designer of the stuccos and frescoes for the Grand Theatre in Lwów (modern "Theatre of Lviv").
