Włodzimierz Tetmajer (1861–1923) was a Polish painter with works in collections of the Warsaw National Museum and Kraków. Włodzimierz Tetmajer was born in Harklowa near the town of Nowy Targ and died in Bronowice, now a district of Kraków. Tetmajer studied painting at the Kraków School of Fine Arts ("Szkoła Sztuk Pięknych w Krakowie") from 1875 to 1886, than in Viena and Munich (1886-1889), in Paris at the Académie Colarossi, and with Jan Matejko from 1889 to 1895. In 1890 he maried Anna Mikołajczykówna, a peasant’s daughter from Bronowice in the spirit of the Young Poland's return to the roots. His village wedding became the inspiration for the dramatist Stanisław Wyspiański who wrote defining Polish independence drama called "Wesele" ("The Wedding"). Tetmajer settled with his wife in a remote house covered with thatch, where he was visited by poet Lucjan Rydel among others.
