Polish, 1882–1932
Tadeusz Makowski (1882–1932) was a Polish painter who spent most of his life in France and was linked to the School of Paris. He studied classical philology and art in Kraków before moving to Paris in 1908. His early work followed his academic training, but after contact with Cubist painters in Montparnasse, his style changed. Later, inspired by time spent in Brittany and the Netherlands, he created stylized landscapes and scenes of carnivals, fairs, and children, drawing on influences from Dutch painting, Polish folk traditions, and naïve art; he also illustrated books with woodcuts.
