Olga Boznańska - Portrait of Józef Czajkowski - MNK II-b-1326 - National Museum Kraków

Józef Czajkowski (1872–1947) was a Polish architect, furniture designer, and painter of international renown. Czajowski's arts in all forms sought to distill and improve upon that which was best about Polish tradition, and his aim was to celebrate the culture of the people his art served. He wrote, in 1928, "Poland has been politically resurrected and it shall be reborn internally as well, and as such it must find its visual mode of expression.
